This church is as stunning inside as it is out. It certainly is magical. My son commented upon entering “Whoa, Mom, doesn’t it remind you of the Magic Kingdom?” I felt the twenty minute guided tour was worth the money ($5/adult, $4/kids CAD). The church was founded in 1642 and its history is entwined with that of Montreal. We found the organ the most fascinating with its 7000 pipes and 4 keyboards. We were lucky enough to hear it as they were practicing for Easter Mass.
