Rose Historic Chapel
The Rose Historic Chapel, formerly known as the St Mary's Convent Chapel, is a heritage-listed stone church building located in Colombo Street in Christchurch, New Zealand. It is registered as a "Historic Place – Category II " by the New Zealand Historic Places Trust. The building was designed in the Gothic Revival style and erected in 1910.
==History==
The first Bishop of Christchurch, John Grimes (1842–1915), arrived in Christchurch in February 1888. He provided leadership to the Catholic community, and worked towards uniting the class differences, political opinions and different nationalities of the settlers. During his reign, many churches and buildings were constructed, including the Sisters of Mercy St Mary’s Convent. For his silver jubilee as a bishop, he was invested with several ecclesiastical honours for his contributions.
The Sisters of Mercy arrived in Christchurch in 1894, when under the guidance of Mother Mary Bernard (1810/1811?–1895), St Marys Parish School and Convent was established.〔 The chapel, built in 1910, is the last remaining building of the St Mary’s Convent, the rest of the complex having been demolished in 1994.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://rosehistoricchapel.co.nz/location.html )〕 The chapel was designed by the brothers Alfred Edgar Luttrell and Edward Sidney Luttrell; this was their first commission by the Diocese of Christchurch〔 and they became their unofficial diocesan architects, designing many more churches and other buildings.
It was purchased by the Christchurch City Council, who renovated the building in association with the Rose Chapel Trust and Friends of the Chapel.〔 The chapel was damaged during the 2011 Christchurch earthquake.
