Convict Church

One of the iconic landmarks of the historic Port Arthur site. The convict church was used for prisoners of different denominations. Sporting a wooden steeple and a peal of bells, it made for an imposing structure. Sadly, the steeple blew down in a storm and the rest of the church was damaged in a bushfire. All that remains now is this beautiful, brick skeleton. Its open-air structure and dramatic setting, nestled amongst greenery and the historic site now makes it a popular site for weddings and other special occasions.
