Abbotsford Convent Complex

Abbotsford Convent Complex, the former Convent of the Good Shepherd is said to be the most important Catholic institutional complex in Victoria. We found the Convent to be a very busy place on a cold winter's Sunday morning but we enjoyed our visit and managed to take a photo or two.

This facade is a remnant of a movie that was partially shot at the convent about the World War Two resistance fighter Nancy Wake (AKA The White Mouse)
