HISTORIC ANGLICAN CHURCH
We visited the Cathedral of the Holy Trinity located next to Place d'Armes. It is the first Anglican church built outside Great Britain. Compared to the more ornate Notre Dame Basilica de Quebec, Holy Trinity is more austere with an altar in front of a stained glass triptych and framed by walls inscribed with the Lord's Prayer and other scriptures. The church features an exhibit of gold and silver chalices and other pieces used during church services that were gifts from King George III, painted stained glass windows and a towering organ. Visitors are welcome to do self-guided tours.
The church hosts community events. We enjoyed visiting an outdoor market (artwork, clothing, jewelry, crafts) held on the church grounds. We regret not having time to attend one of the organ recitals that are held at the church.
