Puhoi Presbytery

The Catholic Church was an important part of life in early Puhoi. At the start, the priest used to walk from parish to parish, stopping in each settlement to hold a service. Later on, the church was built and a school run, by nuns.

This is part of the presbytery built for the first resident priest in the 1880s. It has the same white walls and red roof that all the church buildings have.
