"Saint Peter and Saint Paul Romanian Orthodox Church and Hall

Located approximately 11 miles southwest of Limerick on the NW 34-06-03-W3, Saint Peter and Saint Paul Romanian Orthodox Church was built in 1911, the area’s first church and, reputedly, it’s first wood-frame structure. The church boasts a timber frame bell tower, vaulted ceiling with nave and many original fixtures and furnishings. The church hosted regular services for nearly half a century and still holds services occasionally during the summer months. The adjacent cemetery is the resting place of many early settlers and is still in use today.

The church hall located at the same location was built circa 1920 to accommodate the meals and social time that followed Sunday church service as well as events such as weddings and funerals. In addition to hosting church related functions, the hall was an important social and cultural centre where Romanian language lessons and traditional Romanian dance classes were held. It also served as a temporary home for the local school in the 1930s."
