Montréal - Notre-Dame Basilica 
|
|
Also on the Place d'Armes, the Neo-Gothic façade of the Basilica of Our Lady, built in 1829, with its twin towers (69 m (226 ft)) fronts Montréal's oldest Catholic parish church (founded 1656). The amazing interior is the work of Victor Bourgeau, resplendent with woodcarving and stained glass illustrating the history of the city.
The Sacré Coeur altar (1982), in the chapel of the same name, consists of 32 bronze panels by Charles Daudelin.
The great organ is a Casavant and the recitals held in the church throughout the year are very popular.
