This convict-built, heritage-listed church dates back to 1841. Designed in the Gothic Revival style by convict architect James Blackburn, Holy Trinity is regarded as one of Hobart’s most prominent Colonial buildings and is now owned by the Greek Orthodox Church. It features an impressive bell tower, the oldest bells made for an Australian church and three stunning Greek Orthodox chandeliers from Athens.
The local Greek community will also have a stall open, so why not grab some wonderful Greek treats to sustain you for your day of OHH visits.
Open: Saturday 9 November 2024, 1pm – 4pm, Bell Tower Tours: 1pm, 2pm & 3pm
Note: Steep staircase leading up to the bell ringing room; please wear sturdy shoes and mind your step.

![Open House Hobart and the Emerging Architects and Graduates Network (EmAGN) Tasmania @emagn_tas would like to thank everyone who kindly bid in this year's annual Sheltered [Ground] Silent Auction.
We watched the last-minute bidding war on some items (looking at your chair, @other_furniture_) with absolute glee; because, together, you helped raise over $8000 for the Hobart Women's Shelter @hobartwomensshelter. Legends. THANK YOU!!
If you missed out on an item, but you'd still like to support HWS, please head to the link in bio to make a donation. Your financial help plays a critical role in supporting service delivery and therapeutic programs, and fund strategic projects such as building long-term homes. Such programs provide opportunities for women and children to lead independent and fulfilling lives.
Finally, congratulations to those who outbid everyone else – enjoy your beautiful pieces, knowing there's a string of jealous individuals who missed out. Don't worry! We'll do it all again next year.
