Old St Paul’s
The 2019 / 2020 earthquake strengthening is now complete.
Old St Paul’s has served generations of Wellington families for their celebrations and ceremonies. With its warm native timber interior, beautiful stained glass windows and attentive staff, it is a welcoming, non-denominational venue.
There is seating for up to 480 people. Used for recitals, the acoustics are superb with a grand piano and organ for approved musicians. It has an excellent sound and audiovisual set-up.
For a more intimate or private gathering, families can use the choir stalls in front of the altar, which seat 40.
At night, the stained glass windows are backlit so consider Old St Paul’s for a memorable evening funeral.
