Comments

The St George Greek Orthodox Church and Community of Port Pirie was incorporated in 1925, being Australia's second oldest Greek Community. The church is part of the District of Adelaide & Darwin and the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of Australia. The church building was opened about 1960, although Greeks were amongst the earliest European groups to settle in Port Pirie, so have a much longer history here. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 23/1/2024.
