Bay of Fundy towns and villages are home to many beautiful stone & wood churches. Two hundred years ago, it was quite possible that same folks who designed and built tall ships on the shores of our coastal communities also built our churches.These churches were created as prominent and permanent fixtures in communities. Design features were borrowed and adapted from Europe - such as these narrow Gothic doors with wrought iron hinges on St George's Anglican in Parrsboro, Nova Scotia
On Sundays (and on Christmas eve, for sure) church bells still ring from church towers here and all around the Bay...a tradition that still warms the hearts of all who hear them!
