Located in Winnipeg, Manitoba, this cemetery surrounds the original St James the Assiniboine Anglican Church, built in 1853.
The historic cemetery across from Polo Park at Tylehurst and Portage welcomes people to visit this old First Nations meeting ground — our gates are always open. In 1851, the Hudson Bay Company granted the land to the Anglican Church of Canada, and the Parish of St. James was born. The Church, erected in 1853, is the oldest log church still in use for regular worship in Western Canada. People are welcome to attend the Sunday Services, held at 9:30 am from the last Sunday in June through to the last Sunday in August.
More history of the parish can be found on our main website, St James Anglican Church.
