Holy Jesus Hospital from railway bridge
There is a description here NZ2564 : Holy Jesus Hospital
The building became the John George Joicey Museum in 1970, focussing on the history of the city. Its hopeless situation, however, meant it was little visited and it eventually closed in 1993. A further renovation saw the building re-open yet again in 2004 – this time as the local HQ of the National Trust’s Inner City Project. This latest phase in the history of the Holy Jesus Hospital building ended in 2013 and access to the public is usually only possible on Heritage Open Days or special events such as the 2016 Late Shows.
