Ukrainian Catholic Church of the Blessed Virgin Mary

Designation Date: November 12, 2002
Designation Authority: R.M. of Armstrong
Present Owner: Trustees of Ukrainian Greek Catholic Parish of the Virgin Mary at Zbruch

The heritage value of the Ukrainian Catholic Church of the Blessed Virgin Mary lies in its connection to the religious values of the early Ukrainian immigrants to the Malonton area, and in their conviction to express their religious practices. The building, based on an open one-room plan, is a simplified version of more elaborate churches found in Ukraine, and is a typical example in Manitoba of the kind of basic forms, materials and details that characterized this building type.
