Doors Open Vaughan - St. Paul's Presbyterian Church

Access

About

Until 1884, when this church was constructed, itinerant ministers held services in this community in people’s homes. Initially built as a modest frame structure, the current Romanesque-style brick building replaced it in 1888, with unique architectural details worth exploring during your visit. The adjacent cemetery contains the remains of many of Vaughan’s notable pioneering families

City of Vaughan

With a population of more than 340,000 residents, Vaughan is one of the fastest growing communities in Canada, home to more than 217 ethnic or cultural origins with 113 different languages spoken. It is a vibrant, diverse, inclusive and equity-based community that recognizes and celebrates arts, culture and heritage.

We recognize that Vaughan is situated in the Territory and Treaty 13 lands of the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation. We also recognize the traditional territory of the Huron-Wendat and the Haudenosaunee. The City of Vaughan is currently home to many First Nations, Métis and Inuit people today. As representatives of the people of the City of Vaughan, we are grateful to have the opportunity to work and live in this territory.
