Wagunyah Mass Tree

A majestic 600-year-old river red gum near the banks of the Murray River, it marks the site of the first Catholic Mass in the area celebrated in 1869 by Rev. Dean William Tierney from the Beechworth Mission. 

The tree is at the start of a scenic walking track along the beautiful Murray River, offering a creation-immersed opportunity for prayer and reflection as you walk in the footsteps of pioneers of our Diocese.  For more information go to: https://www.sandhurst.catholic.org.au/item/2784-the-wugunyah-mass-tree
