Benvoulin Church is located at what was once the Benvoulin Town site, which was laid out by pioneer land promoter, Mr. G. G. McKay. This is also the site of the McIver House, (1890’s) one of the city’s unique heritage settings.
It is also home to Xeriscape and Heritage Gardens. The Benvoulin Heritage Church was originally a Presbyterian Church built in 1892 in the Gothic Revival style. The original tower was replaced in 1953 and the steeple replaced during restoration in the early 1980’s. Now fully restored, this charming pioneer church has become one of the most popular locations for weddings.
Though right in the city, it offers a historical location in a country setting. The tall steeple on this white shiplap building has been landmark for over a century. It is located at 2279 Benvoulin Road and is open to visitors each afternoon when there isn’t a wedding scheduled.
