Toronto Sights

Church sights in Toronto

  1. A

    Church of the Holy Trinity

    On the west side of the Eaton Centre is the oasislike Trinity Sq, named after the welcoming Anglican Church of the Holy Trinity. When it opened in 1847, it was the first church in Toronto not to charge parishioners for pews. Today it’s a cross between a house of worship, a small concert venue and a community drop-in center – everything a downtown church should be!

  2. B

    St Andrew's Presbyterian Church

    Built in 1876, rock-solid Romanesque Revival–style St Andrew's encourages stressed-out city workers to come inside and 'find a quiet moment.' It's a peaceful place indeed, its tranquility only shattered when the multipiped Karl Wilhem Organ on the 2nd floor starts pumping. Pick up a self-guided tour pamphlet by the entrance.

    St Andrew-by-the-Lake Church

    Indeed, it is by the lake! This white weatherboard Anglican church (1884), often referred to simply as 'The Island Church, ' holds heart-warming traditional Christmas celebrations each year and harbor boat blessings every June.
