About Holy Name Seminary
According to Wikipedia, Holy Name Seminary was a Roman Catholic seminary staffed by the Society of Jesus established in New Zealand for the training of priests. It was first opened in 1947 in Christchurch and closed at the end of 1978. From 1969 until 2000 this old white-painted building stood nowhere on the site of Holy Name Seminary on Riccarton Road. Instead, the seminary was an addition built onto a very grand, two-storey, colonial, red-brick homestead which was erected and lived in by the eminent Kincaid family.
