Kogarah, Resurrection of Christ Greek Orthodox Church

The Resurrection of Christ Greek Orthodox Church is in the southern suburb of Kogarah. It was constructed in the 1980s but due to modern day noise restrictions, the planned bell tower on the left was never completed. The entrance to the church is decorated with palms for Palm Sunday.

  1. Too bad about the bell tower. I like the sound of church bells!

    I think this is the simplest design I've seen of a Greek Orthodox Church as yet. I like it, especially the arch of colored window panes over the entrance.

  3. That is so ridiculous that the bell tower was not completed because of noise restrictions!
    Church bells are an fact of life, like any other music
