Christ Church Royal Chapel

The Gothic Revival chapel features a square bell tower, limestone walls, narrow lancet windows, and traditional architectural elements reflecting both European and Indigenous influences.

Built in 1843 to replace an earlier log structure, the chapel received its royal designation from King Edward VII in 1904 as recognition of Mohawk loyalty.

The chapel houses historical gifts from British monarchs, including a silver Communion set from Queen Anne and a triptych with Mohawk language inscriptions.

The chapel maintains regular Anglican worship services and offers guided tours for visitors interested in learning about Mohawk history and traditions.

The structure contains memorial windows commemorating important events in Mohawk history, including the 200th anniversary of their arrival at Bay of Quinte.
