Data Points

The Church of Our Lady of Good Hope (Église Notre-Dame-de-Bonne-Espérance) is a Carpenter Gothic-style Roman Catholic church situated on a bluff overlooking the Mackenzie River in Fort Good Hope, Northwest Territories, Canada. Constructed between 1865 and 1885 as an Oblate Fathers' mission (Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate), this modest 45 by 25 feet (13.7 by 7.6 m) building was once home to Father Émile Petitot, a prominent figure known for his work in ethnology, linguistics, and geography of the Canadian northwest. Despite its unassuming Carpenter Gothic-style exterior, featuring wooden siding, a steeply pitched roof, lancet windows, and an entranceway under a steepled bell tower, the church boasts an exceptional interior adorned with elaborate painted decorations. Recognized as a National Historic Site of Canada on June 6, 1977, this designation specifically applies to the church building, excluding the adjacent historic cemetery.
