Église Notre-Dame-du-Mont-Carmel

In 1908, the parish of Notre-Dame-du-Mont-Carmel was established and a resident priest was appointed. Over the years, the original church was modified many times, and plans were eventually drawn up by architect Donald Cardinal for a new brick church. In 1928, the old church was moved again, with horses pulling it 70 meters behind the site planned for the new building. On October 5 of that year, while the new church was under construction, fire completely destroyed the old church, and only a statue of the Virgin Mary was saved. The present church was inaugurated on December 16, 1929, and a Casavant Freres organ was installed in 1944.
