St-Georges's Church

130 Rue Principale
Granby, QC J2G 2V2

Established in 1843, St. George’s Anglican Church in Granby, QC, has a rich history that dates back to its humble beginnings. Initially, a wooden frame church, lovingly constructed by volunteers, hosted its first service on October 14, 1843, marking the start of a spiritual journey embraced by the community.

The church's current magnificent structure, completed in 1908 by the talented Architects Louis Auguste Amos and Arthur Cox, stands as a testament to architectural beauty and historical significance. Consecrated in 1922 by Bishop Farthing, this building, designed in the Collegiate Gothic style reminiscent of old English universities, features a majestic Gothic tower that soars 66 feet into the sky. Despite facing challenges like the fire that destroyed the Victoria Hall in 1978, the church persevered, rebuilding and adding the present hall in 1981, showcasing resilience and unwavering dedication to its heritage.
