Minto Armoury, Military drill hall in West End, Winnipeg, Canada
The Minto Armoury exhibits Tudor Revival architecture with crenellated corner towers, low arched entrances, and red brick walls with white stone details.
The Department of Public Works constructed this military facility between 1914 and 1915, following designs by Chief Dominion Architect David Ewart.
The Royal Winnipeg Rifles, The Queen's Own Cameron Highlanders of Canada, and 38 Signal Regiment maintain their operations at this location.
The structure contains a large drill hall, lecture rooms, and administrative offices, serving as an active military facility for reserve units.
A fire in 1956 led to the replacement of the original wooden roof with a steel truss structure while preserving the building's exterior features.
