St. Alban's Anglican Church, Ottawa

Saint Albans Anglican Church is a historic Anglican church located in the Sandy Hill neighborhood of Ottawa. It holds the distinction of being one of the oldest surviving church buildings in Ottawa. The church was established in 1865, and its original design was created in 1866 by Thomas Fuller, who was also the architect behind Canada's original Parliament Buildings.

The construction of Saint Albans began in 1867, following the laying of the cornerstone on May 9 of the same year. It was completed in 1868, with the chancel and vestry being finished later by King McCord Arnoldi in 1876-77. The church's location on a steep hill at the corner of King Edward and Daly posed challenges, resulting in Fuller's initial plans being significantly scaled back. Nevertheless, the church attracted prominent figures, including early political leaders of Canada like Sir John A. Macdonald.

Saint Albans Anglican Church is named after Saint Alban, the first British Christian martyr, who was known for providing refuge and support to the oppressed and terrified.

Recognizing its historical significance, the building holds a Municipal designation under the Ontario Heritage Act, Section 29, and is subject to an easement agreement with the Ontario Heritage Trust.
