The 8 Best Churches & Cathedrals in Halifax Regional Municipality, Halifax Regional Municipality

Built between 1800 and 1812 under the patronage of Prince Edward Duke of Kent, and then seeing major modifications through the 1820's and early 1900's before being carefully restored after a catastrophic fire in 1994, Saint George's Round Church remains the oldest round church in North America and an excellent example of Palladian architecture. Prospective visitors are encouraged to contact the Parish Office to arrange their visit.

The Little Dutch (Deutsch) Church is the second oldest building in Halifax, Nova Scotia after St. Paul's Anglican Church. It was adapted as a church in 1756 and consecrated in 1760. Established by Otto William Schwartz, it is the oldest known surviving church in Canada associated with the German-Canadian community. By the early 1800's the congregation migrated to St. George's Round Church just down the street. The Little Dutch Church, though still a consecrated church in its own right, presently functions as a chapel of Saint George's Round Church, hosting the annual Commemoration of the Faithful Departed (commonly called All Souls' Day) on November 2nd, and the Daily Offices during summer months. Prospective visitors are encouraged to contact the Parish Office to arrange their visit.
