I have passed this old church hundreds of times but I've never gone inside prior to today. I knew this was the oldest chapel in Montreal, but it was really nice to go in and experience the peaceful, understated serenity of this old, humble church (especially after just visiting Basilica Notre Dame, and experiencing that church's grandeur).
I appreciated how there was no charge to go in and check out the interior (we did not opt to go to the museum, for which there is a charge).
I wasn't aware that this is called "The Sailors' Church". There are model ships suspended from the church's ceiling. Very interesting.
I hear that one can climb a tower and be rewarded with a wonderful view of the city (if one pays the museum cost of admission).
