Armoury, Military training facility in St. Catharines, Canada
The building features a large rectangular structure with projecting square towers and substantial round-headed windows across its white painted walls.
Built in 1905 during Canada's military reform period, this structure emerged as part of a nationwide initiative to strengthen militia training after the South African War.
The Armoury maintains an active role in military education while providing spaces for community gatherings, exhibitions, and local ceremonial functions.
Located in central St. Catharines, the facility contains multiple training areas, classrooms, storage spaces, and a spacious drill hall for various activities.
The structure incorporates elements of Baronial architecture with crenellated walls and buttresses, reflecting Canadian military construction standards from the early 1900s.
