Little Dutch (Deutsch) Church
Little Dutch Church, Halifax, Nova Scotia
Little Dutch (Deutsch) Church is the second oldest building in Halifax, Nova Scotia after St. Paul's. It was adapted as a church in 1756 and consecrated in 1760.[1] Established by Otto William Schwartz, it is the oldest known surviving church in Canada associated with the German-Canadian community. It was an official chapel of St. Paul's Church (Halifax). Eventually, the congregation migrated to St. George's (Round) Church, Halifax, Nova Scotia. (Major Leonard Lockman is buried beneath the Church where his monument remains.)
