The third place of pilgrimage dedicated to the Virgin Mary, one of the most imposing of the country in Trois-Rivières.
It is the 3rd pilgrimage site in Quebec, dedicated to the Virgin Mary. The basilica is renowned for its organ, one of the most imposing in the country, but above all for its stained glass windows with superb colours, works by Jan Tillemans (1915-1980), an Oblate father of Dutch origin, who made them in the medieval tradition from 1956 to 1964. Next to the basilica, visit the small sanctuary, the old church from 1714 which is also the oldest stone chapel in Quebec.

J'ai eu l'occasion de visiter l'église qui est dôté de remarquables vitraux de toutes les couleurs. Le sanctuaire à coté est plus sobre.

L'architecture est imposante et assez lourde, mais elle mérite tout de même un petit arrêt si l'on passe dans la région. Une petite promenade est possible le long du fleuve.
I do not understand for that reason this sanctuary is part of the tourist routes. It is better to choose another alternative according to your personal interest.
