Surrounded by 100 year oaks, sycamores and pines, this beautiful old church was dedicated in 1865. The main structure was built of local handmade bricks with a shingle roof that is now covered with galvanised iron for protection. The porch and vestry were added at a later date. Services are held on the first and third Sunday of the month, and visitors from other denominations are most welcome. Check on the noticeboard outside the hall for special events. The great photographic and aesthetic qualities of the church make it the ideal venue for weddings
ST JOHN THE APOSTLE CATHOLIC CHURCH
Address: Cnr Perkins & Nash Streets, Jamieson VIC 3723

The current church was built in 1899 replacing the wooden church of 1864. Two Jubilee 2000 plaques, with the word Jubilee incorrectly spelt, record the church's history and the dedication of a Memorial tree to all Jamieson Pioneers.
