Knox United Church, Gothic Revival church building in downtown Calgary, Canada

Knox United Church features long wall buttresses, large pointed-arch windows, and irregularly coursed sandstone from the Bane and Leblanc Quarry of Calgary.

The congregation established in 1883 built its current structure between 1912 and 1913, designed by Calgary architects Lawson & Fordyce with Allen & Collens of Boston.

The church maintains a strong musical tradition with its Casavant-Freres organ containing 5018 pipes and 92 stops, ranking second in size in Calgary.

Visitors can access the church sanctuary on weekdays from 10 AM to 2 PM, with dedicated staff present on Thursdays for guided assistance.

Thirty-four stained glass windows, added between 1921 and 1960, include a World War I memorial window manufactured by Pittsburgh Glass Company.
