A sculpture by church at
Site patrimonial
de la Visitation |
This sculpture by Danielle April was one of 30 works that will be
inaugurées in 2020. It was recently installed at side of l'Eglise Notre-Dame-de-Foy. It honors some 37 families who founded the Notre-Dame-de-Ste-Foy parish. They arrived in North America beginning in the 1600s.
his
wonderful sculpture is new. The church itself is very old but was site
of a fire. It was restored -- without a roof -- and is the site of
musical events free to the public. If it rains the musicians take their
instruments to cover!
a paragraph from the website:
"Acquired in 1993 and transformed into a park by the city, the Site
patrimonial de la Visitation comprises the ruins of Notre-Dame-de-Foy
Church, the Sainte-Foy historical interpretation centre, located in the
old presbytery, and a public garden. The park located in the ruins of
the old church and the sacristy are used to hold concerts and cultural
events during the summer. "
