This church was built by Marguerite Bourgeoys. The chapel became a favorite place of prayer for sailors and has some model boats hanging from the ceiling. It was a nice little place to visit. I definitely recommend checking out the museum also.

We didn't get to see the big Notre Dame, but this one was charming and beautiful. Worth a stop by to spend a half hour in.
There is a doll museum inside if you pay to visit the museum you get access to the balcony up top known as the widows balcony
We did not take the tour of the chapel or museum, but we were able to walk through. This is a beautiful chapel with interesting art. The statues at the back and top of the building are amazing!! Very cute store inside.
This church was as imposing from the back, facing the harbor, as it was from the front. A sailors' church, it is still used for prayers for safe passage even today. I particularly liked the chandeliers in the shape of boats.
Small “church of the sailors”. The church is located by the old market and the St Lawrence river. It’s history of the chapel makes it unique, a place where sailors came to pray for safe passage. Worth a visit, clean restrooms, and a little museum that tells the story. (We didn’t visit the museum, time constraints).
