St. Basil's Church, Heritage church at University of Toronto St. George Campus, Canada

St. Basil's Church features Gothic Revival architecture with detailed stained glass windows and a prominent pipe organ installed in 1919.

The founding church of the Congregation of St. Basil was constructed in 1856 after Captain John Elmsley donated land for its establishment.

The parish maintains a strong music tradition since its beginning, leading to the publication of St. Basil's Hymnal in 1887.

The church holds daily Mass services at 7:30 AM and 12:10 PM on weekdays, with additional weekend services including four Sunday Mass times.

The church underwent extensive renovations between 2019 and 2021 to update safety measures while preserving its historical architectural elements.
