Tadoussac Chapel

Chapelle de Tadoussac

A small wooden chapel built in 1747, considered one of the oldest surviving wooden churches in North America.

Also known as the “Indian Chapel,” it was built by Jesuit missionaries between 1747 and 1750. It has a red roof and white wooden walls, and its interior holds 18th-century religious objects and a statue of Jesus donated by the King of France. It is open to visitors in summer, and you can enter by making a donation. The chapel is very small and can be seen in about ten minutes. It stands on the lawn by the bay, next to the old hotel, and is a good spot for photos.
