Huron and Jesuit
a Huron native and Jesuit priest with Sainte Marie Among the Hurons as it would have looked in 1640
Sainte Marie Among the Hurons was a Jesuit settlement, the first European one in Ontario
The mural was painted by Fred Lenz and is the largest outdoor historical mural in North America.
Just for fun, here is the world's largest duck (61 feet) near the largest mural (80x250 feet)
see also here for more of the duck Monday Murals

St Andrew's welcomes you
Niagara-on-the-Lake
The first church in town was built in 1794, but was intentionally burned down in 1813 during thee War of 1812. A new building wasn't built until 1831. It is still standing after surviving, a tornado, a lightning strike, several fires, although the spire was severely damaged during a hurricane in 1855.

19th century manufacturing
this mural in New Hamburg was too big to fit properly
