Constructed in 1844, the church sits in the middle of Vittoria’s historic square and is flanked by the United Church (1845), Town Hall (1870) and Baptist Church (1853). This area provides a rare and valuable legacy of early architectural styles of Ontario – the most important being Christ Church. According to University of Toronto professor, Marion MacRae, OC, “of the timber churches which were designed in the continuing Georgian tradition, one of the handsomest yet standing is Christ Church, Vittoria.”
