York Factory National Historic Site
Even more remote, 250km southeast of Churchill, the HBC trading post, the York Factory National Historic Site, near Hayes River, was an important gateway to the interior and active for 273 years until 1957. The stark-white buildings are an amazing sight contrasting with their seemingly middle-of-nowhere setting. York Factory is accessible only by air, boat or (for the very determined and experienced) canoe.

St Paul's Anglican Church
The historic and illuminating St Paul's Anglican Church is about 100 times more beautiful on the inside than the outside. The stained-glass windows seen in afternoon light are simply breathtaking. Behind the church is Thanadelthur's Cairn, a small tribute to a Chipewyan woman who helped HBC arrange a treaty between her tribe and the rival Cree, allowing the fort to be built in Churchill.
