Beautiful old church made of solid uncut rocks. Time obviously affects the structure but it still stands strong and in use. Worth the little detour from the main road. There is also a cemetery in the church land.

Very pretty church tucked in just off the # 303, near Ladysmith, not far from Shawville, Quebec. Great example of a solid stone church from 1894. You can see inside to the altar & podium, some windows left ajar to ventilate the sanctuary.
