1. Rectory of the Catholic Church Marker
Rectory of the Catholic Church (1870) The first rectory was built in 1847. Following the building of the new Catholic Church, Mgr Guigues, Ottawa archbishop, approved construction of a new rectory in 1870. Many changes were made over the following twenty-five years, which modified its external appearance. Today, Church offices occupy part of the ground floor.
