From its single white steeple to its grey stone exterior, Notre-Dame-des-Victoires Church evokes all the charm you'd expect from the old part of the city. Construction began in 1687 in the Colonial French style, underlined by the intricate white and gold details on the interior. The interior pays tribute to Quebec faith and history with representative sculptures and motives throughout, and the naval ship suspended from the ceiling is not to be missed. A British bombardment destroyed the original church, leading to its 1816 rebuild. The church has since been named a National Historic Site of Canada.

The building itself was beautiful however it wasn’t open when i visited unfortunately. A sign explaining the history or significance of the church would have been nice, because my thought was « oh, it’s a church, ok » without much information. I hope someone post a clear information about visiting hours! Maybe next time I’m in Quebec I’ll be able to see her.

If you can only see a few places during your stay in Old Quebec, make sure that this is one of them. The history of this church alone is worth the visit!
