The Lutheran Archives is the official repository of historical material relating to the Lutheran Church of Australia (LCA). As well as holding records of the present LCA, it holds records of the earlier Lutheran Churches in Australia which in time amalgamated to form the present Lutheran Church of Australia.

Family History Research:

We have a large collection of Parish Registers from all over Australia. They contain information on births, baptisms, confirmations, marriages, deaths and burials of people who were associated with the Lutheran Church.
