St Aloysius Catholic Church

St Aloysius Catholic Church stands on the north-west corner of Ripon Street and Leith Street, Redan.

History
The church was opened on 21 March 1915: "NEW R.C. CHURCH. OPEN AT REDAN. Ballarat: Sunday. The new Roman Catholic Church was opened at Redan today and £400 was collected."

In September 1915, in a report on the death of the Bishop, Dr. Higgins, it was reported that he personally had financed the church: "Recently the Bishop erected, at his own expense, at Redan, the Church of St. Aloysius, which, cost £3000."
