My favourite old church in Alberta – destroyed by fire

I was heartbroken to hear about this beautiful place burning down a few years ago. This past Sunday afternoon I decided to take my motorcycle for the first somewhat longer ride of the season to Canmore, Alberta. Somewhere along highway 1A between Calgary and Canmore was the site of this church, the oldest protestant church in southern Alberta. In summer, I enjoy taking this less busy road to avoid the Trans Canada highway. I stopped at the church many times over the past years to take the photographs, and at one point even was allowed to play one of the old, and horribly out of tune, pianos inside the church.
