St. John's Anglican Church

St. John's Anglican Church, Anglican church in Peggys Cove, Canada.

St. John's is a church building in Peggy's Cove constructed with a wooden frame and vertical board-and-batten siding in Carpenter Gothic style. The structure features a steeply pitched roof and narrow lancet windows that define its exterior appearance.

St. John's was built in 1893–94 of wood, the only church in Peggys Cove. On 22 February 1993 the Halifax Regional Municipality designated the building and its land a municipally registered heritage site. It belongs to St. Peter's Parish in the Anglican Diocese of Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island.

The church is named for Saint John, and inside hang two murals painted in 1963 by William E. deGarthe, a Canadian artist who lived in Peggys Cove. Volunteers who staff the building from June to October can point them out and answer questions about the church and the village.

Access is available from June through October when volunteer staff open the building six days per week for visitors. Plan your visit during this window, as seasonal restrictions apply and hours may vary based on local availability.

The building received heritage protection designation in 1993 and stands as the sole church structure in the entire village. This recognition makes it an architectural landmark for a small coastal community.
