Review & FAQ:

Basilique Cathedrale - Notre-Dame-de-Quebec is a Catholic church built in 1647, the first stone church in the new city. It was declared a cathedral in 1674 when the Québec City Diocese was formed, and became a basilica two hundred years later because it attracted large number of pilgrims. Located in Old Quebec, the basilica has a magnificent neoclassical facade with two asymmetrical towers.

Some of its most stunning features are beautiful stained glass windows designed by the Champigneulle House in Paris and the Meyer House in Munich, three Casavant organs and golden sculptures such as baldachin designed and built by famous French Canadian artist François Baillairgé. Map
