Anglican missionary work by students of the ministry in Winnipeg began on a regular basis in Regina soon after the arrival of the railroad. The first resident Anglican priest was Reverend Alfred Osborne. He became the first rector of St. Paul’s Parish on December 13, 1882. A modest frame building was completed in the spring of 1883 on the corner of McIntyre Street and 12th Avenue. Eleven years later in 1894 the cornerstone of the present St. Paul’s was laid on the same site. This gothic church was elevated to cathedral status in 1973.

An annex was added to the north side of the church in 1957 to provide additional space for community and operational space. By 2009, the church needed a replacement for the annex. It was demolished in 2012 and a new annex will be constructed on the same site. Its design will complement the existing cathedral, as well as provide handicap access and modern facilities.
