St. George’s Church
Anglican
The Old Garrison Church

Constructed as the Garrison Church
for the original British Engineers who
laid out and surveyed the town in 1784.
Continuously used as a Parish Church
ever since, this building is the “Mother Church” of Cape Breton Island.

The building was restored several times
but the year 1974 saw its first major “[?] up”
when Her Majesty’s Canadian Government
provided funds under the Lavor Intensive
Program, and the Government of Nova Scotia
undertook to pay for electrical and other
works not covered under that program.

We invite your presence inside, to
reflect on the past history of all people who
have frequented this church from
first days of Sydney’s founding.

Ce mémorial est dédié aux paroissiens de St. George qui se sont enrôlés pendant les Première et Seconde Guerres mondiales.
