St. Augustine's Church Macau, Macau Overview
Deemed as one of the oldest churches in Macau, St Augustine’s is located in the square it was named after i.e., St. Augustine’s square. It is also Macau’s first church for English mass. This church is a superb example of the blending of the western and the oriental culture.
Macau's St. Augustine's Church is also the starting point of the event “Procession of Passion of our Lord”, which happens every year during Easter, on the first weekend of Lent. This 16th-century practice of procession bearing the cross attracts a large number of people to Macau and subsequently to the church every year.
Originally built by the Spanish Augustine priests, it was later taken over by the Portuguese. The church sits in the vicinity of other attractions such as Don Pedro V Theatre, Sir Robert Ho Tung Library and St. Joseph’s Seminary and Church.
