Wow... This is beautiful. This church was built in 1647 and its architecture and artwork are beautiful and mind blowing. The carvings, and stained windows are so detailed, and beautiful. Entrance is fee.

Let me start by saying WOWWWW! Hands down the best church I have ever been to. Just gaze and ponder over the marvel, the beauty of this amazing ornate cathedral. Very peaceful and serene ambience both inside and out. This church built in 1660s is an epitome of the architecture and religious artwork. The carvings, paintings and stained windows are so picturesque and speak for themselves about the history of the church. No entry fee. If you get a chance then do sit for the prayer. It's very meditative. Amidst its grandeur, you can find a peaceful haven for introspection and connection by sitting through the prayer.

Beautiful basilica that you must visit if you are in Quebec (even though there are lots of churches in Quebec). This cathedral had significant historical importance and if well worth a visit.

Gorgeous cathedral and free to access (unlike Notre Dame in Montreal where there is an entry fee of 18 CAD) with the lines you normally find in more northern European cathedrals as opposed of the Portuguese or some Spanish cathedrals for example. I liked it's simplicity with only some golden adornments around the altar area besides the usual stained glass typically found here. Quiet, despite being located in the busy part of the old Quebec town and just beautiful.

Spectacular reredos behind the altar. Very impressive light from the Christ. Interesting place to visit and helped by the explanations given if you follow the QR links. Don't miss the Holy Door in a chapel to the left only 7 in the world. Pilgrims pass through on special days. The gross in behind the momument to saint de la Val is very special.
