  • The Frescos of Pillars<br />
Frescoes located on the pillars of the Dufferin-Montmorency Highway built between 2000 and 2002 at the instigation of Hélène Fleury, Quebec artist who collaborated in the "Fresque des Québécois".<br />
These are the only frescoes in Quebec city who do not represent the history of the city but rather imaginary scenes. <br />
Among them, the fresco "The Cathedral" represents the inside and the outside of a cathedral on each side of the pillar, inspired by the Sainte Chapelle in Paris. <br />
The fresco "Chivalrous tales" introduce us into the world of tales with princess, knight and magician, while "The Clock" illustrates the mechanisms and workings of this object.<br />
Finally "Homage to Quebec circuses" introduces observers to the circus world and its actors, jugglers, clowns and acrobats.<br />

  • The Frescos of Pillars<br />
Frescoes located on the pillars of the Dufferin-Montmorency Highway built between 2000 and 2002 at the instigation of Hélène Fleury, Quebec artist who collaborated in the "Fresque des Québécois".<br />
These are the only frescoes in Quebec city who do not represent the history of the city but rather imaginary scenes. <br />
Among them, the fresco "The Cathedral" represents the inside and the outside of a cathedral on each side of the pillar, inspired by the Sainte Chapelle in Paris. <br />
The fresco "Chivalrous tales" introduce us into the world of tales with princess, knight and magician, while "The Clock" illustrates the mechanisms and workings of this object.<br />
Finally "Homage to Quebec circuses" introduces observers to the circus world and its actors, jugglers, clowns and acrobats.<br />

The organ would sometimes play music without anyone sitting there and the ghost of a woman sometimes appears near the altar. It is said that during her visit in 1987, Queen Elizabeth II herself saw a specter of a woman near the organ, looking down the railing. Legend has it that it was the ghost of a nun named Iris Dillas, who died in 1830 after being buried ... alive.<br />

  • Holy Trinity Cathedral, haunted church? <br />
Designed by military officers William Robe and William Hall and built between 1800 and 1804, it was consecrated on August 28, 1804.<br />
Maybe it's a haunted church...<br />
The organ would sometimes play music without anyone sitting there and the ghost of a woman sometimes appears near the altar. It is said that during her visit in 1987, Queen Elizabeth II herself saw a specter of a woman near the organ, looking down the railing. Legend has it that it was the ghost of a nun named Iris Dillas, who died in 1830 after being buried ... alive.<br />
