HistorySibylla Maude and Mabel Thurston, both former matrons of Christchurch Hospital, first thought of a chapel at the hospital.[2] Rose Muir, the matron from 1919 to 1936, wrote to the hospital board in July 1924 reiterating the need for a chapel. This request was approved in principle in January 1925.[3] The hospital board provided the land and paid for the foundation and the basement, and was in turn granted the use of the basement. The Ministry of Health did not permit the hospital board to fund any other part of the building, and the government did not provide any of the funds either, but suggested that the public should fund the chapel.[3] A fundraising campaign commenced in November 1925.[1]The foundation stone was laid on 15 March 1927 by the Duke of York. The foundation stone shows the name of the Duchess of York, but she was ill on the day and her husband stood in for her.[1][2] The chapel was built during 1927 to a design by John Goddard Collins (1886–1965) of Collins and Harman, who offered his time free of charge.[1] The first service was held on Christmas Day of 1927.[1] The chapel is dedicated to nurses who died during World War I, and to nurses who died during the 1918 flu pandemic. Three Christchurch nurses—Nona Hildyard, Margaret Rogers and Lorna Rattray—died when the troopship SS Marquette was sunk in 1915 by a German submarine. Two Christchurch nurses—Grace Beswick and Hilda Hooker—died during the flu pandemic.[1] Threats of demolitionIn the mid-1970s, the hospital board proposed to demolish the chapel to make way for additional operating theatres. This was met with strong opposition, and the hospital board found a solution that left the chapel in place. The next threat of demolition occurred in the 1980s and was again met with strong opposition, with the New Zealand Historic Places Trust issuing a protection notice in August 1989. Subsequently, the hospital board leased the building to Christchurch City Council, and it is administered by a trust and cared for by a group that calls itself 'Friends of the Chapel'.[1] EarthquakesThe chapel was closed after 4 September 2010 Canterbury earthquake had damaged the building. It suffered additional damage in subsequent earthquakes. In October 2011, the Canterbury District Health Board announced that the chapel would be repaired, after demolition had been considered.[3] ArchitectureCollins chose the Arts and Crafts architectural style for the building, with the walls made of exposed brick inside and out, and timberwork on the inside.[1] The timber includes oregon panelling, and blackwood and oak parquet floor. There are carvings in the sanctuary by Frederick Gurnsey and Jack Vivian. In the early 1990s, a porch was added to the chapel.[4] Stained glass windows[5]
Heritage registrationThe New Zealand Historic Places Trust registered the building with registration number 1851 on 20 July 1989. The chapel is significant as New Zealand's first hospital chapel, and as the country's only World War I memorial solely dedicated to women,[7] and is worldwide the only chapel dedicated to nurses.[8] References{{Commons category|Nurses Memorial Chapel}}1. ^1 2 {{cite web |url=http://cnmc.org.nz/construction/ |title=Construction |publisher=Friends of the Chapel | accessdate=5 March 2016}} 2. ^1 {{cite news |title=Nurses' Chapel |url=http://paperspast.natlib.govt.nz/cgi-bin/paperspast?a=d&cl=search&d=CHP19270316.2.81 |accessdate=5 March 2016 |work=The Press |volume=LXIII |issue=18951 |date=16 March 1927 |page=9}} 3. ^{{cite news |last1=Stylianou |first1=Georgina |title=Historic chapel saved from wreckers |url=http://www.stuff.co.nz/the-press/news/christchurch-earthquake-2011/5782813/Historic-chapel-saved-from-wreckers |accessdate=6 March 2016 |work=The Press |date=14 October 2011}} 4. ^{{cite news |last1=Blundell |first1=Sally |title=Chapel holds special place for nurses |url=http://www.stuff.co.nz/the-press/news/christchurch-earthquake-2011/7545999/Chapel-holds-special-place-for-nurses |accessdate=6 March 2016 |work=The Press |date=26 August 2012}} 5. ^{{Cite web|url=http://cnmc.org.nz/stained-glass-windows/|title=Stained Glass Windows – Christchurch Hospital Nurses Memorial Chapel|website=cnmc.org.nz|access-date=2016-07-01}} 6. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.teara.govt.nz/en/biographies/3e9/erwin-jean-neill|title=Jean Neill Erwin|last=Latham|first=Iris|date=|website=|publisher=Te Ara - The Encyclopedia of New Zealand|access-date=1 July 2016}} 7. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 {{NZHPT|1851||5 March 2016}} 8. ^{{cite web |url=http://cnmc.org.nz/ |title=Welcome to the Christchurch Nurses Memorial Chapel |publisher=Friends of the Chapel | accessdate=5 March 2016}} 13 : 1927 establishments in New Zealand|NZHPT Category I listings in Canterbury, New Zealand|Buildings and structures in Christchurch|Places of worship in Christchurch|Churches completed in 1927|2011 Christchurch earthquake|Christianity in Christchurch|World War I memorials in New Zealand|Spanish flu|Monuments and memorials to women|Nursing monuments and memorials|1920s architecture in New Zealand|Sinking of the SS Marquette |
