- History & Culture travel tip
- City center
Of course, the Montreal version is smaller in scale, but it's very beautiful and quite a true image of the original, I think. On the outside, the statues of the region's patron saints decorate the roofline, while the most impressive sight of the inside is the high altar.
I would definitely recommend a visit, especially knowing that admission is free.

Bd. René-Lévesque Location At rue Mansfield
Price:
Admission is free, but donations are accepted.
Opening Hours:
From morning till late afternoon every day.
How to get there:
By metro, get down at the Bonaventure station
