Notre-Dame Basilica (French: Basilique Notre-Dame de Montréal) is a basilica in the historic district of Old Montreal, in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. The church is located at 110 Notre-Dame Street West, at the corner of Saint Sulpice Street. It is located next to the Saint-Sulpice Seminary and faces the Place d'Armes square.

The church's Gothic Revival architecture is among the most dramatic in the world; its interior is grand and colourful, its ceiling is coloured deep blue and decorated with golden stars, and the rest of the sanctuary is a polychrome of blues, azures, reds, purples, silver, and gold. It is filled with hundreds of intricate wooden carvings and several religious statues. Unusual for a church, the stained glass windows along the walls of the sanctuary do not depict biblical scenes, but rather scenes from the religious history of Montreal. It also has a Casavant Frères pipe organ, dated 1891, which comprises four keyboards, 92 stops using electropneumatic action and an adjustable combination system, 7000 individual pipes and a pedal board.[1][2]

Notre-Dame de Montréal ("Our Lady of Montreal") is a Roman Catholic basilica in the Canadian city of Montreal. It is located in Old Montreal (Vieux-Montréal) on Rue Notre-Dame, next to the Vieux Séminaire de Saint-Sulpice and opposite the Place d'Armes. The neo-Gothic building was built between 1824 and 1829 and replaced the earlier parish church of the same name.

The Notre-Dame de Montréal basilica, located in the borough of Ville-Marie in Montreal, is the mother church of Montreal, the largest in the Archdiocese of Montreal and the second largest church in Montreal. A veritable gallery of religious art, it houses ornaments whose richness has no equivalent in Montreal.

Again one of the (too) many churches. I actually like the ensemble on the right better. And the two statues with pugs in front of it are well worth seeing. Be sure to read the explanation on the board!

Notre-Dame Basilica is the Catholic mother church of Montreal and was the first Gothic Revival church in Canada. In 1982, Notre-Dame, then a cathedral, was elevated to the rank of minor basilica by Pope John Paul II and designated a National Historic Site of Canada in 1989.

Sunday morning is the service - a visit in the afternoon or on another day is recommended

Grandiose cathedral, which, however, also requires a high entrance fee. Go early so the lines are shorter.
