Saint Sylvesters Church

Rang the bell and a guy shows up and ask if we called him ?he wasn't friendly

Have went by and stopped and taken many pictures of this church on my yearly trip to Alberta just a shame that over the years it has been deteriorated the update has not been done so sad cuz it's a beautiful Church along the lake there

A beautiful old church and accompanying severely damaged priests home that holds a lot of history. The priests home has an old cast iron stove and a lot of decay. There is some signage around stating that the church was built in 1878, and the first recorded burial in the cemetery is October 3 1880. It is clear that the cemetery is maintained and possibly still used? A lot of items and features are there that wouldn't survive winter months.The best part about this old church is being able to ring the bell! Very fun, I am so glad there was a rope!The intention was to follow the hiking trail listed on the Superior Hiking Website, however it was very difficult to find. We were able to find the path but not quite sure where it starts to scale up the cliffs, and we weren't able to find the supposed benches along the way.

Passed by it a 1000 times its so cute! Just such a peaceful spot

Very unique quaint church and cemetery! Quick walk to the beach at lake Helen . My family are cemetery connoisseurs and this is definitely one of the top 5 most interesting cemeteries we've ever seen.

Love the moon of this church. At night i swear it looks haunted

Whoever put that huge sign on the front needs a flick on the forehead.
