\nSunday, August 21<\/del>, 2pm.\u00a0The Religious Heritage of Mile End<\/strong><\/em>.\u00a0Over the last century, Mile End\u2019s diverse collection of churches, synagogues and prayer halls has been used by local residents not only for religious practice and education but also for a host of other celebrations, social gatherings and meetings. The architectural expression of these buildings, some purpose-built and others converted residential or commercial structures, varies from simple to elaborate, and most of them are still used today for religious, cultural or community purposes. Over time, the majority have welcomed two, three or four congregations representing different religious communities, testifying to the settlement, over the course of the 20th century, of a succession of ethnic communities in the neighbourhood, which is rich in cultural history.<\/p>\n![\"Photo](\"http:\/\/memoire.mile-end.qc.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/Religieux-2014-600x439.jpg\")
