Description
Recipient of 5 features from FAA Groups --- St. John's Anglican Church was the first church established in Lunenburg, Nova Scotia, Canada (1754). It was the second Church of England built in Nova Scotia, and was the second oldest remaining Protestant church in present-day Canada until Halloween night, 2001, when St. John's church was destroyed by fire. It has since been rebuilt. St. John's Church was built during the French and Indian War, using the wood salvaged from an older disassembled church building. When King's Chapel in Boston, Massachusetts, was expanded, its new stone structure was built around its original wooden church, which continued to be used. Then, when that new stone building was completed in 1754, King's Chapel's old wooden frame was disassembled from inside, removed through the new building's windows, and shipped to Lunenburg to use in construction of St John's Anglican. Lunenberg is a UNESCO whaling village.
