Our Lady of the Assumption (Windsor, Ontario)
Windsor, Canada · built 1846
Our Lady of the Assumption, currently located at 350 Huron Church Road in Windsor, Ontario, is a Roman Catholic church and is the oldest continuous parish in Canada, west of Montreal. The current church, which opened in 1845, is the fourth to be built on the site. The building closed in 2014 when it was determined the building needed approximately C$15 million in restoration work. After a fundraising campaign, construction began in early 2019 on the first phase of a four phase restoration plan and included the installation of a long-term copper roof, a new heating system, major electrical work, and structural repairs. The building reopened for regular weekend mass on September 8, 2019. The parish began the second phase of the restoration plan in 2020. The second phase includes restoration of the church's ceiling.
