The heritage-listed Mission to Seafarers building (c.1917) on Flinders St in Melbourne’s Docklands serves a special place in the life and community of those who live and work at sea.
An international mission of the Anglican Church, the Mission to Seafarers cares for the practical and spiritual welfare of seafarers of all nationalities and faiths. There are 230 centres around the world, including four in Victoria, that provide welfare services to support the tireless work, isolation, and hardships faced by seafarers.
Australia relies on shipping and seafarers to connect to the world and to bring goods to our homes for the economy to thrive, and for the health of our island nation. The dedicated team of staff and volunteers provide comfort, a friendly face and a sense of community to the tens of thousands of seafarers who visit the Port of Melbourne annually.
The recently renovated building is architecturally significant and is considered a fine urban example of a merging of the ‘Arts and Crafts’ and ‘Spanish Mission Revival’ architectural styles in Melbourne.
Open daily to the public from 12pm, visitors are encouraged to take a self-guided tour through the building’s collection of stories of Melbourne’s maritime history, and to explore the Norla Dome, learn the history of the Chapel, peak inside long-lost nooks and discover the hidden garden and courtyard.
The enchanting design offers a unique venue for functions and events of all styles and sizes; with full bar facilities, and a commercial kitchen, all within the heart of Docklands and a short stroll from the Melbourne CBD.
