Churches of Saskatchewan and the Canadian Prairies.

Exploring the Hidden Gems: Photographing and Filming Rural Churches in Saskatchewan – A Focus on Ukrainian Heritage

Across the open landscapes of Saskatchewan, Alberta, and Manitoba, rural churches stand as quiet witnesses to faith, migration, and community. Built by settlers from various denominations—Ukrainian, Roman Catholic, Orthodox, Anglican, and more—these historic buildings reflect deep cultural roots and striking architecture.

What began in 2008 as a project to document every Ukrainian church in Saskatchewan has grown into a visual archive of prairie churches, with photography, history, and occasional video walkthroughs. Whether you're drawn to their beauty, history, or solitude, this blog invites you to explore the sacred heart of the Canadian Prairies.
