In my early teens I read about this church in Willa Cather's novel "Shadows On the Rock. When I stumbled upon it in the early morning it was with a shock of recognition. I was surprised at how small it was. This beautiful square(Place Royale) where Notre Dame sits in is usually crowded with tourists--so it's best seen very early or very late. The statue depicts Louis XIV.
I was totally enchanted. This historic landmark is one of the most beautiful buildings in Old Quebec.
I was going to use "Ave Maria" here--but when I heard "Les adieux des bergers" sung by Renee Fleming I changed my mind.
Enjoy this!
