St Gerard's Church and Monastery

Texte de Wikipédia en anglais, en attente de traduction.

St Gerard's Church and Monastery collectively form one of Wellington's most distinctive and iconic landmarks. Located on Mount Victoria in Wellington, both buildings are classified as Category 1 Historic Places (places of "special or outstanding historical or cultural heritage significance or value") by the New Zealand Historic Places Trust. They are built on the site of a sixteen-roomed house (called Fitzgerald's Folly) and property owned by James Edward Fitzgerald who some claim to be New Zealand's first Prime Minister. In April 2021, the owners of the buildings, the Institute for World Evangelisation - ICPE Mission, announced that the church would close at the end of the following month due to safety concerns. The buildings were sold on 27 March 2023. The purchaser was a recently formed company, St Gerard's Limited.
