For over a century, Rosedale United Church has stood at the corner of Roxborough Drive and Glen Road as both a spiritual sanctuary and an architectural landmark in Toronto’s Rosedale neighbourhood. Founded in 1913 after a devastating fire, the church was designed by architect John Gemmell in the Gothic Revival style. Its soaring arches and radiant stained glass continue to inspire awe today. Rosedale United remains a place where history, faith, and community meet.
Our Pillars
Come Inside!
Step inside our Gothic Revival sanctuary and you’ll feel its dramatic beauty. Towering arches, a tall pitched roof, and luminous stained-glass windows create a sacred atmosphere. At the heart of the space is our Casavant Opus 591 pipe organ, first built in 1914 and expanded in 2005, with more than 2,600 pipes filling the sanctuary with resonant sound. Every detail invites both reverence and wonder.
