Tadoussac Chapel
This charming church, nestled on the shores of the marine park in Tadoussac, has been designated a national historic site due to its significance both historically and architecturally. It stands as the sole original place of worship reflecting the Jesuits' missionary activity in the isolated regions of New France, as well as the Innu people's embrace of Christianity. With its unique features and construction techniques, it is recognized as the oldest wooden church in Quebec and Canada, providing an exceptional example of mission churches inherited from the era of New France.

Îlets-Jérémie Chapel
The Ilets-Jérémie was a very important trading post in the 1650s. After the Montagnais people of Tadoussac were weakened and diminished by diseases, it was decided to seek fur there. In the 1730s, a chapel was built at Ilets-Jérémie. In 1765, a new chapel was set up with Father Labrosse, who embarked on mass literacy efforts among the Montagnais. Unfortunately, from 1840 onwards, the Ilets-Jérémie post was abandoned. In 1939, the parish priest of Sainte-Thérèse decided to rebuild the chapel based on the model of the one in Tadoussac. The altar, the cross, and other items were retrieved and placed in the new chapel at Ilets-Jérémie. Now, it is an important pilgrimage site in Quebec. The chapel is dedicated to Saint Anne.

The Sainte-Amélie Church, Baie-Comeau
The Sainte-Amélie Church, a treasure of the North Coast heritage, is a source of pride for the residents of Baie-Comeau. In 2015, it celebrated its 60th anniversary. Its architectural significance is acclaimed throughout Quebec. At Sainte-Amélie Church, you can admire our collection of frescoes, stained glass windows, religious artifacts, and sculptures. The frescoes and stained glass windows of Sainte-Amélie Church were created by the Montreal-born Italian artist Guido Nincheri. The work he accomplished at Sainte-Amélie Church in Baie-Comeau represents three times the surface area of the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel painted by Michelangelo between 1508 and 1512.

St. Andrew and St. George's Anglican Church, Baie-Comeau
Nestled on Carleton Avenue, facing Pioneer Park, this remarkable Anglican church was built in 1937. It was the first church to establish itself in the Baie-Comeau region. In Tudor style, it features enormous oak woodwork and beautiful stained glass windows. The main stained glass, created by Clara Fargo Thomas, stands out for its representation of the animals of the North Shore forests.

Rivière-au-Tonnerre Church
Built during the early decades of the 20th century by a team of over 300 volunteers, this wooden church, restored in the late 1970s, is a must-visit. Its appeal lies notably in its vault, towering over 8 meters high and adorned with around sixty finely sculpted motifs. An audioguide is available free of charge for approximately 45 minutes of exploration.
