"W"

Wimmer Ukrainian Orthodox Church is in central Saskatchewan.

Hand made wrought iron crosses top the central dome and cupolas.

The congregation formed in 1924 and in 1940 the Holy Ascension Ukrainian Orthodox Church was built near Wimmer.

The cemetery is just across the road.

    1. Another occasion where the church and cemetery have separate gates.

      I find that one or two historical facts can help to set these historical places into their proper time frame.
