Dominating the north-west slope of Mt. Royal, this Neo Renaissance, topped with a colossal, octagonal, copper-clad dome, towers 154m/505ft over the city. This famous Catholic pilgrimage site is also home to a votive chapel, museum, the chapel of Brother André (original chapel) and a Station of the Cross. Enjoy the view over the north of Montreal and the Laurentian Mountains from the basilica's large terrace.
