Church of the Good Shepherd

Built in 1935 as a memorial to the pioneers of Mackenzie County, the Church of the Good Shepherd stands on the scenic shores of Lake Tekapo, framed by snow-capped mountain peaks. This heritage building, with its modest and welcoming design, continues to serve as both a place of worship and a popular tourist attraction. Visitors can admire the serene setting and the church’s simple, yet evocative architecture, which harmonizes with the natural beauty of the surrounding landscape.
