Comments
The Holy Cross Seminary/Priory, Lake Bathurst (Goulburn) is a Mass Centre for the Society of Saint Pius X, which sits outside the formal Catholic Church. It was founded on 1/11/1970 by "Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre - a man of the Church, missionary, founder of the SSPX, - a man who helped preserve the tradition of the Church after Vatican II." (Sourced from: https://sspx.com.au/en). No other details are known. The building ceased being used as a seminary at the end of the 2021 academic year, as overseas students could not come to Australia due to Covid restrictions. It is now a Priory, but may have other seminary type uses in the future as the restrictions are removed. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 4/5/2022.
