Explore St Thomas's Anglican Church, a Toronto architectural gem, with historian and professor, Dr. Carl Benn. This Arts and Crafts masterpiece, designed by renowned architect Eden Smith in 1892-93, features a stunning Pre-Raphaelite First War memorial, historical stained-glass windows, and exquisite furnishings by prominent Canadian and British designers. The tour includes a reception showcasing vestments and silver treasures, and falls between the Sunday choral Eucharist and Evensong, and members are welcome to attend either service. The church, originally intended as a temporary structure, has served the community for over 125 years. Its baptistery from 1922 is described as "the most beautiful small room in Toronto.” The building houses several architectural treasures, including a reredos behind the high altar with hand-carved statues of nine saints.
