Hilltop Chapel
Hilltop Chapel was built in 1905 in the country town of Warwick. For the next 60 years this church was enjoyed by the community as a place of worship. In the 1970’s it was relocated to a site behind the current Uniting Church, where it was used as a Sunday School. There it remained until May 2001 when it was relocated to Tamborine Mountain, to its current location at “Hilltop on Tamborine”.
The wedding chapel has been painstakingly restored to reflect its former glory. With its old church pews, polished floors and expansive valley views, this historic church reminds of an era long gone and makes it an ideal venue for your wedding ceremony.
Hilltop Chapel is licensed up to 70 people.
