Leave a legacy

Mary MacKillop Place stands as a one-of-a-kind sanctuary in Australia, celebrated for its rich tapestry of pilgrimage, spirituality, education, and hospitality. At the heart of this sacred site is the Mary MacKillop Memorial Chapel, where the tomb of Saint Mary of the Cross MacKillop attracts hundreds-of-thousands of pilgrims each year, seeking inspiration and solace.

In addition to the Chapel, visitors can explore the Mary MacKillop Place Museum, which honours the life, work, and spirituality of Mary MacKillop. Our Gift Shop & Café provides warmth and community, while our conference and retreat facilities offer a peaceful environment for reflection and learning. We also offer comfortable accommodation for those wishing to immerse themselves further in this unique experience.
