Saint Stephen Church, Cardiff

Saint Stephen Church, Cardiff

The church was constructed in 1900 to replace a temporary iron frame church and opened as the chapel of St. Mary's. In 1912, it became a separate parish under the name of St. Stephen. The parish was deconsecrated in 1992 and the church was used as a community centre and theater until 2001, when it was purchased by its current owners. Tremendous renovations in 2003 transformed the church into a venue for live music performance and regular club-nights, including Bogiez. The entire building was restored and much of the original architecture was kept, including all the stained glass windows.
