Trinity Square is a unique site in the heart of downtown Toronto. It can be found tucked away between the Toronto Eaton Centre and the Church of the Holy Trinity. It's calm oasis within the busy downtown core.
The Church (The Church of the Holy Trinity) that can be found to the one side of the square was opened in 1847 following the gift of an anonymous donor. Later the donor was revealed as Mary Lambert Swale of England.
A fire in 1977 caused damage to the original ceiling and south windows of the church so in 1989 the interior walls of the church, painted in the nineteenth century, and the organ were restored. Today, the church is fully functional, and its members believe in worship, art and social justice.
The Church of the Holy Trinity weekly services:
Sundays: 9:00am and 10:30am
Wednesdays: 12:15pm
