Baha'i House of Worship

Baha'i faith was brought to Australia in 1920 by Clara and Hyde Dunn. Sydney's Baha'i house of worship was designed by John Brogan and built on the highest point above the northern beaches of Sydney.

Religion

Religion has had a profound influence on the geography, culture, politics, and artistic life of Sydney. While religion has mostly been a conservative force, preserving traditions transported from home societies, it has also reflected the setting and people of Sydney, its harbour, bushland and suburbs.
