Situated in the very heart of Old Québec, Notre-Dame de Québec Cathedral-Basilica is open throughout the year. Recognized as one of Québec and Canada’s historic monuments, it is located in the historic quarter of Old Québec, designated a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. The centrepiece of the interior decor is the imposing gold-leaf canopy overhanging the choir and supported by sculpted angels. Other treasures include the sanctuary lamp; a gift from Louis XIV; the stained glass imported from Munich and Paris, and the magnificent organ from the prestigious House of Casavant. Not widely known is that there are more than 900 tombs in the crypt, including those of Québec bishops and archbishops - during summer, it’s possible to take guided tours of the basilica crypt. In 2014 the cathedral celebrated its 350th anniversary. As part of the celebrations, a holy door was constructed—the second outside Europe and only the eighth in the world. It goes without saying that I would just check official church service times if you want to see everything, as not to disturb anyone. Do not worry about finding it as it literally is in the heart of the old historic quarter.
