The Mercy Heritage Centre Brisbane was a social history museum which is now closed and will re-open in June 2019 as Adderton: house & heart of mercy. All Hallows' ConventThe original core of the building (Adderton) was constructed in 1858 by John Petrie and remains one of Brisbane's few pre-separation structures and one of the oldest surviving buildings in Queensland.[1] Purchased for the Sisters of Mercy in 1863 and renamed Convent of Our Lady of Mercy All Hallows’ on 1 November 1863, it was the first permanent home of the Brisbane Sisters of Mercy and as Mother House, the centre and source of growth for convents and schools throughout Queensland.[2] Thus All Hallows' Convent became the base for a broad network of health, education and social welfare programs. Significant extensions were made to the convent in 1892, 1913 & 1919. All Hallows' ChapelThe Chapel was constructed as part of the 1892 Convent extensions, blessed on 1 March of the same year[3] and further extended in 1919. The earlier section is of Victorian style while the latter is early- Renaissance. The interior was refurbished in 1968 in accordance with Vatican II changes.[4] The Chapel is now managed by the Mercy Heritage Centre and includes displays, photographs and information relating to; the buildings evolution, religious practice, vestments and stained glass windows.
