Comments

The St Mary's Catholic Church, Echuca is in the Parish of Echuca and the Diocese of Sandhurst. The first church building on the current site was a wooden structure, built about 1875. It was gradually replaced by the current brick structure which was opened on 24/5/1890, by the Right Rev Dr Reville DD, co-Adjutor Bishop of Sandhurst and the Very Rev Prior Coleman OSA. The church celebrated its centenary in 1975. No other details are known. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 30/1/2015
