The Museum tells the story of Monsignor John Hawes as priest and Architect through interpretive panels, audio-visual presentations and artefacts. Come and learn about the extraordinary man behind the buildings! After visiting the Museum, you can book a guided tour through St Francis Xavier Cathedral. During September, the wildflower season in the Mid West, tours every day at 2:30pm, except Friday when its at 4:00pm.
The heritage centre is certainly worth a visit. It acknowledges the life and work of a talented Monsignor John Hawes both as a priest and as an architect. His architectural contribution to the area is remarkable. Called in by chance and glad that we did.

I had been working in the Kimberley at the Broome Visitor Centre for the past 3 years & as a traveller myself I am always attuned to what tourists want. What attracts them to visit certain locations etc. I had always promoted Geraldton because I enjoyed our time there as visitors in the past and was keen to pass on to fellow travellers what not to miss. Geraldtons foreshore has enjoyed a bit of a revitalisation since we were last there & while staying with relatives this time we were keen to check out all of the revamped foreshore art installations. "Horizon" was one that I had not heard about until we were taken to see it. Congratulations to the artists & to the City of Greater Geraldton for their great work. Wow, what a stunning attraction. It certainly generated quite a bit of interest at sunset with people arriving in time to capture a photo at this lovely time of night. Adequate off street parking, a wide meandering footpath, lovely lawns & picnic shelters nearby encourage locals & visitors to linger longer. We even returned the following morning for another look.
