The village established 36 years ago by Sydney’s two German-speaking Catholic communities St Raphael in Blacktown, 34km west of Sydney's CBD, and St Christophorus in Croydon, 9km west of Sydney's CBD, St Hedwig was orginally predominantly for German-speaking people. 

St Hedwig, which in 2000 almost doubled in size, merged with Catholic Healthcare in 2020. 

Now a complete redevelopment of the village with 72 contemporary, one-, two- and three-bedroom self-care apartments, along with plans for a new aged care residence.

The new apartments are priced from $475,000.
