Christchurch Cathedral

ChristChurch Cathedral (After the Christchurch Earthquake 2011) New Zealand

ChristChurch Cathedral is a deconsecrated Anglican cathedral in the city of Christchurch, New Zealand. It was built between 1864 and 1904 in the centre of the city, surrounded by Cathedral Square.
The February 2011 Christchurch earthquake destroyed the spire and part of the tower, and severely damaged the structure of the remaining building and that is how it remains today. (Wiki)

Christchurch Cathedral Choir, Christchurch New Zealand

During a visit to Christchurch New Zealand, I was able to attend a Choral Prayer service, at Christchurch Cathedral, on November 21, 2010. The Christchurch Cathedral Choir sang at the service. Three months later the cathedral was badly damaged in the deadly earthquake which struck Christchurch. There are plans to rebuild the cathedral. Please view the cathedral website

Christchurch Cathedral - Six Years On

The floors a covered in a thick layer of pigeon poo that crunches after every step we take. The sound of Pigeons vigorously trying to escape the rooms we walk into breaks the dead silence inside. The floors of the offices are covered with old papers and belongings. Glass crunches underfoot as we enter the gift shop, souvenirs, post cards and jewelry are littered around the floor, the air is hot and musty. Six year old drinks still fill the fridges in the cafe. This building has been barely touched for six years, left to decay and fall apart after every small shake.

Video footage inside the earthquake damaged Anglican Cathedral in the Christchurch city center. The video shows parts of the cathedral unseen by the public since the Cathedral was badly damaged in the 2011 earthquakes, including the Cathedral offices, Gift Shop and Cafe.

I do not own the video footage at the beginning of the video showing the Cathedral before the earthquakes, credit to the owner:



*Disclaimer*
I did not enter the Cathedral with the intent to steal damage or vandalize the building, I was there strictly to document the buildings damage before the restoration began. On my visits to the Cathedral I nor the others who accompanied me broke, altered or removed anything from the buildings, we were there to take photos and only took photos.

Exploring New Zealand #6: Christchurch Cathedral Square and Canterbury Museum

When I was preparing this trip to New Zealand, some people told me Christchurch wasn't that good. How wrong they were. Christchurch is a beautifully planned city plenty of interesting things to keep you busy for a couple of days. We took many photos at the Cathedral Square, climbed the Christchurch Cathedral tower, visited the fascinating Canterbury Museum and spent an afternoon at the Orana Wildlife Park.
______

Cathedral Square, locally known simply as the 'Square', is the geographical centre and heart of Christchurch, New Zealand, where the city's Anglican cathedral, ChristChurch is located. The square was originally intended to be called Ridley Square, after the Protestant martyr Nicholas Ridley, but in Edward Jollie's 1850 plan of central Christchurch it is clearly marked Cathedral Square. Ridley's co-martyrs and colleague bishops, Cranmer and Latimer have Squares named after them, not far distant from Cathedral Square.

- Update 5 September 2010: Earthquake in Christchurch, New Zealand
Christchurch's landmark heritage buildings have made it through yesterday's damaging 7.1 magnitude earthquake, and hefty aftershocks, relatively unscathed. Five hundred buildings have been affected across Christchurch, including 90 in the central city where there are many heritage and character buildings. Christchurch landmarks to have fared well the earthquake include the Provincial Chambers, the Christchurch Cathedral, the Arts Centre, Christ's College and the Public Trust building and other buildings on Oxford Terrace. One building extensively damaged is the Repertory Theatre in Kilmore St, just months ahead of a major restoration project, a city council spokeswoman said. Staff from Christchurch City Council and the Historic Places Trust have begun inspecting central city buildings alongside the council's building evaluation team, and will also assess buildings elsewhere in Christchurch and Banks Peninsula. A very small number of buildings have suffered extensive damage due to the earthquake, and further assessment will determine whether they can be restored. Many others have suffered minor to moderate damage, and will be fixed in coming weeks. Buildings already strengthened by property owners had generally fared well. We encourage building owners to seek appropriate advice from structural engineers and architects and take steps in the interim to reduce damage and cost by keeping them weather-tight, Urban Design and Heritage team leader Ceciel DelaRue said.

Here's a look at the Cathedral church in Christchurch New Zealand befor the Earthquakes hit.

Christchurch Cathedral through time, 2nd remix version

In response to popular demand, I have made a new version of this video, where the pictures have stayed on for 4 seconds instead of 2, there are also some corrections and a host of new images, including many more post earthquake ones.
Basically I show the History of the Anglican Cathedral in Christchurch, New Zealand, going backwards from 2016, to the earthquakes in 2011, which left it a ruin, through its life back to its construction in the late 19th century and even photos before then. Interesting fonts of each era are used and the historical value is immense.

Christchurch Cathedral through time 1852 - 2016

My first Time Travel movie, here I use Iconic photos of the Cathedral in Christchurch between 1859 and 2016 and present them backwards!
The photos were all taken by otherphotographers except one I took in 2015. Fair use provisions. An interesting journey through time.

We start in the present, as we survey the ruins of the cathedral today and watch it get less ruined, until in 2010 it is suddenly intact and the deadly stillness returns to life.Then we go back on average a year or two at a time as the fashions change and the cars get older and older until they disappear for trams, horses and carts and finally we see the cathedral disappear into a see of wooden shacks and grass. We arrive in 1852, when Christchurch was a few months old and had a few hundred hardly colonialists.

Buildings disappear and are replaced by smaller and more wooden ones, which give way to grass.

Much thanks and inspiration gained from James Fox, his videos are way better and you all need to watch them.

EXPLORING WORLD'S ONLY CARDBOARD CATHEDRAL, CHRISTCHURCH (NEW ZEALAND) ⛪

SUBSCRIBE: - Let's go for a tour of this Cathedral, made out of cardboard and located in Christchurch, New Zealand. It is called transitional because it replaces, temporarily, the destroyed Cathedral from the 2001 earthquakes. Vic Stefanu, vstefanu@yahoo.com. New Zealand is an island nation in the southwestern Pacific Ocean. The country geographically comprises two main landmasses – that of the North Island, or Te Ika-a-Māui, and the South Island, or Te Waipounamu – and numerous smaller islands. New Zealand is situated some 1,500 kilometres (900 mi) east of Australia across the Tasman Sea and roughly 1,000 kilometres (600 mi) south of the Pacific island areas of New Caledonia, Fiji, and Tonga.

Christ Church Cathedral Christchurch Earthquake Suffering

Christchurch Cathedral: Dorothee Jansen and pianist, Francis Grier, dedicate Schubert's Litanei (Litany for the Feast of All Souls) to those who died in the Christchurch earthquake in February 2011, in which the city's gothic cathedral was damaged. Dorothee has sung on many occasions in Christchurch Cathedral, or ChristChurch Cathedral or Christ Church Cathedral. All of the above spellings are in use but the one spelling that is not in use is the correct one, which is Christ's Church Cathedral. Christ's Church (thus, in the official documents from 1881) is the rather pedantic translation of Aedes Christi (Christ Church, Oxford), after which the city of Christchurch is named. The concept of Aedes Christi in New Zealand was dreamt of by the settlement's founders also as a twin 'foundation', like its Oxford counterpart, made up of Christ's Church (Cathedral) and Christ's College, the public school, situated about half a mile from the cathedral. This New Zealand 'twin foundation' was central to the vision of the founding association of Christchurch, the Canterbury Association.

Dorothee Jansen and Francis Grier (composer and former Tutor in Music and Organist at Christ Church, Oxford) perform this beautiful early song of Schubert, the 11th song in the Therese Grob Songbook programme, written in 1816, when Schubert was nineteen. This song, being a Litany for the feast of All Souls, has an appropriate connection to Christ's Church Cathedral. Christchurch's beautiful gothic cathedral was consecrated on the feast of All Souls, in November 1881. Therefore let this song be humbly dedicated also to this gorgeous place. May all its souls throughout the generations find peace in Schubert's eloquence.

The slide show that accompanies this recording is comprised of photos of the Irises in the Edward Stafford Gardens at Lansdown Homestead, on the edge of the city of Christchurch. The photos were taken just a couple of weeks after the 4th September 2010 earthquake (magnitude 7.1) which rocked province and city and caused major damage to the Gardens. Nature boomed beautifully in the destruction, a powerful metaphor for rebirth.
