Climb the Auburn Tower........


Auburn Uniting Church 
 Cnr.Oxley Rd./Hepburn Street, Hawthorn

Open on Saturday 26 October, 10am -4pm







If you have never done a climb up this gorgeous Venetian type tower, don't miss out as it is only open once annually.  The view from the tower is unforgettable with the ability to see the Sacred Heart dome in Kew, Xavier dome and the City towers, of course.

The tower is often lit up at night and also its Venetian type lamps on fence posts are lit. Restoration is ongoing on this magnificent church with a superb interior.  The pillars at the top are of cast iron and are in need or urgent restoration and any support you can give by doing the climb would go towards the maintenance.

The church is one of the biggest church complexes in Melbourne with Manse, Gardner's Cottage, Stables, a large hall and a Caretaker's cottage and there are many other points of interest.  

The tower will be open to the public in conjunction with the Jewellery Bling Fling in the hall on Saturday 26 October, same time, 10 am to 4pm.  

Further information on the Bling Fling may be found... here
