Description Caption included with image: With its timbers rotting and nothing left except an outer shell, this Catholic Mission was constructed in the early 1800's by the missionaries.

It is contemplated that the area surrounding it will be made into a National Park and the building reconstructed because of its historical significance as the first of its kind in the northwest territory.
