Description
Aside from the obvious religious interest this site carries, with the patron personally being one of the founders of the Church in the New World, this site has two very interesting works of art: Noel Levasseur's shrine itself and Olivier Ferland's captivating stained-glass works. Experts are drawn to this unassuming site to honor the co-founder of the Church in New France, and to examine the historical documents tracing her work here.
