Description

The building’s design, by architect Seij J. Timoshenko, is a local interpretation of Eastern European architecture with its wooden structure, symmetrical cupolas, central dome, stained glass windows and ornate interior with numerous icons.

Much of the construction work on this building was completed by members of the congregation. This Ukrainian Orthodox congregation was established in 1937 in Vancouver and the church was officially opened on Easter Sunday in 1950.
