Description

DescriptionThe church building was erected at Tallegalla in the mid-1880s and was probably built by Lucas Ulrich of Tallegalla. In Marburg at this time, mass was said in private homes. Because of population changes, the church was shifted from Tallegalla to Owen Street Marburg in 1901. Marburg was part of Ipswich parish until 1923 when it became part of Rosewood Parish. A priest from Rosewood attended once a month to celebrate Mass, accompanied by Sisters of Mercy who conducted catechism classes.

After the Divine Word Order bought Woodlands as a seminary and place of recuperation for missionaries, it tended to eclipse St Boniface's as the centre of Catholic observance in Marburg. The seminary was sold in 1986 and St Boniface was re-established as the centre of church attendance. A new church building was constructed and opened in 1993 and the old church is now used as the church hall.References (offline)Expanded Ipswich Heritage Study, Volume 2, 1997
