A monument in the Rural Municipality of Pembina, unveiled on 19 July 1970, commemorates the site of Archibald Methodist (later United) Church. The building operated here from 1880 to 1964, after which it was moved a few hundred yards south of this site and used for equipment storage. The church was later moved to the Archibald Museum, and designated as a municipal heritage site in 1998, and still later moved to the Manitou Cemetery.
