Little Dutch Church + My Favorites
This Church was built in 1756 and has the distinction of being the first Lutheran Church in Canada. Interestingly, it was not built by Dutch settlers, but rather by Germans, who were incorrectly labelled as Dutch by the locals. As such, the politcally correct name for the church is The Little Deutsch Church. Address: Brunswick and Garrish Street | Halifax, NS Tel: 1 902 423-1059
