Montréal’s Religious Heritage: Northern Montréal, a digital chapter taken from the guide Discovering Montréal’s Religious Heritage, is your invitation to discover all the diversity and beauty of the religious heritage of Montréal and its environs. In full colour and lavishly illustrated with magnificent photos, this one-of-a-kind guidebook reveals the secrets of an exceptionally rich heritage unequalled anywhere else in North America.
This tour through the streets of the borough of Ahuntsic-Cartierville reveals a community rich in history and architectural diversity. Northern Montréal is home to the city’s oldest church still in use, the Église de la Visitation-de-la-Bienheureuse-Vierge-Marie. At the same time, it is an excellent place to discover the architecture of the 1960s, which saw the construction of the first concrete-roofed churches. The Église Notre-Dame-de-Pompéi and the First Armenian Evangelical Church of Montréal are excellent examples of this period. You will also visit churches in the Dombellotiste style and ones inspired by renowned American architect Frank Lloyd Wright. First of all, though, we will start with a place where traditional craftsmanship and contemporary creativity come together inside a preserved Gothic Revival church. Head for the Musée des Maîtres et Artisans du Québec.
Conceived for pilgrims whose journeys are prompted by their faith as well as those drawn by art, architecture, and history, Montréal’s Religious Heritage: Northern Montréal shines a light on Montréal’s rich religious heritage, both ancient and modern. It also spotlights successfully converted religious buildings that have been given a new lease on life.
