Summary

[edit]
Description

A quiet morning along the Rideau Canal just past the Hogs Back locks. The St. John the Baptist Ukrainian Catholic National Shrine is seen in the background.

“The only Ukrainian Catholic parish in the Ottawa region, the St. John the Baptist parish first formed in 1914. After meeting in other parishes' churches for some years, in 1918 the parish purchased a building to the west of downtown and converted it into a church. The church shown here was built in 1987. It is located near the intersection of Baseline Road and Prince of Wales Drive, overlooking the Rideau Canal and Carleton University. The ornate structure in Konstantin Thon's Neo-Byzantine style, was in part built to celebrate the millennium of the Baptism of Kiev. Despite being only a parish church, due to its national status it was granted the title of Sobor. The church is owned and operated by the Basilians.”
