    A tour of the interior of Christ Church Cathedral – The ceiling and its symbols

    Take a final look back down the centre aisle, this time gazing up at the ceiling.

    Designed by Percy Nobbs in 1937, the ceiling combines images taken from the Bible with Christian symbols, creating a summary of the important points of Christian Doctrine.

    About this Cathedral Church

    This building, our music, our liturgies — the sacraments, the sermons — are all here to help everyone who comes through the doors to see and feel and know the One God who is — of course — everywhere and at all times God-With-Us: Emmanuel, God who is over all, and through all, and in all.

    Territorial Acknowledgement

    Christ Church Cathedral is located on the traditional and unceded territory of the Kanien’keha:ka (Mohawk), at a place called Tio’tia:ke (Montreal), a meeting place for many First Nations, including the Haudenosaunee (Six Nation Confederacy), Anishinabeg and Algonquin peoples.

    We recognize and respect the Kanien’keha:ka as the traditional stewards of the land and waters of Tio’tia:ke.

    Our acknowledgement stands as a promise to continue the ongoing work of recognition and reconciliation between Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples.
