Our Lady of Victory Church

Igloo Church

Probably Inuvik's best-known building, there are reasons to check out this prominent downtown landmark even if you aren't a devout Catholic celebrating Mass away from home. This distinctive circular domed church, with its exterior painted to look like an igloo, was built in 1960, making it one of the oldest buildings in town. Inside it features artwork by Inuit artist Mona Thrasher. Church staff sometime offer scheduled tours providing a behind-the-scenes look at the building, including its unique roof and basement areas.
