Cathedrale Christ Church

This historic church is the seat of the city's Anglican Church. Built between 1857 and 1859, the neo-Gothic structure was designed by Frank Mills (who produced a similar structure in Fredericton,New Brunswick) to emulate a 14th-century English cathedral. The church sits atop Les Promenades de la Cathedrale, a popular city mall and adds a much needed historical presence amidst the big box stores. It has been designated as a National Historic site of Canada. The original steeple was too heavy which caused the building to shift and was the subject of famous lawsuits before it was replaced by a much lighter aluminium one.
