Winnipeg through a Stained-Glass Window day 2: Holy Trinity Anglican Church

The Holy Trinity church was built in 1884 and was designed by Charles H. Wheeler, the same architect who designed Dalnavert.

The building's circular plan and bell tower created the perfect space for the Holy Trinity Parish, which was formed in 1868. The only thing this church is missing is the towering spire featured in Wheeler’s original plans, which was never built.

Wheeler designed many of Winnipeg’s early structures, ranging from churches to warehouses to residences, many of which can still be admired today.
