Superb Church in excellent condition.
Built in 1859, the church adopts a rectangular plan and its arched openings as well as its cornice returns take up the neoclassical forms in vogue at the time. In 1889, its bell tower was accompanied by a chime of three bells made by the Maison Havard de Villedieu in France. A niche in the front houses the White Virgin, a wooden Madonna covered in lead. Its cemetery, surrounded between the church and the shore of the St. Lawrence, is one of the most beautiful in the region.
Church to visit in summer.
Beautiful cemetery by the river.
