Saint Luke's Anglican Church (Annapolis Royal)

Saint Luke's Anglican Church is a historic church located in Annapolis Royal, Nova Scotia, Canada. Constructed in 1815, the church served the British garrison stationed at Fort Anne until the garrison's removal to Halifax in 1854. The building is part of the Historic District of Annapolis Royal.

History
The first Saint Luke's Church in Annapolis Royal was erected in 1775 at the corner of Saint George and Church Street. It soon deteriorated and a new church was erected in 1815 at the current location. When the British garrison left in Fort Anne in 1854, the church interior was renovated, as it no longer needed to accommodate garrison soldiers. The church structure was further revised around 1874 and has remained relatively unchanged since then.

As a Royal Foundation, the church has the right to display the royal coat of arms above the entrance. The Foundation status is due the original land grant from George III in 1814. The church has received numerous items of royal patronage since its inception, although some, including the Queen Anne silver communion service, were removed to Halifax when the garrison left.
