Absolutely a beautiful church. Some of the stain-glass windows is what you would have seen visiting Notre-Dame in Paris. This church is quite large, enough to fit 1500 people. It is located close to Saguenay and is an easy walk from or to downtown. St. Francois is actually the fourth church to be built on this small hill. Two of the other churches burnt down. The present church opened in 1922. If you get a chance, stopping and viewing this church is well worth the effort.

You come off the ship and are immediately welcomed by locals (in regional dress) handing out free food samples. On our day in October is was maple syrup on a stick - they keep then in ice until they give it to you. Then you are at the welcome and information building. Small shops and information and maps of the area. Right outside are ticket booths for two locally operated bus routes. One goes into Saguenay (Cultural - churches and museums) and another that goes to the air defence area and the Fjord Museum. Cost was $20 US or 25$ Canadian. You get commentary on the way. Best deal I have seen. We did the Cultural bus with a nice senic ride into Saguenay - Donna was our "hostess" on the way back and was wonderful. The bus makes stops at a cathedral (worth the visit); the local tourist office (we skipped); the Little White House; La Pulperie( a museum on history of area and of the pulp mill that was housed in the building from late 1890's to early 1920's (most others on the bus skipped it but we spent almost two hours exploring; the public market; and back to the ship. A truly memorable experience at this port!

This is a beautiful church that is over a 150 years old. The parishioners are friendly and most will take time to welcome you and tell you about their history. It is important to note that this locality is around the middle of the province, which is French speaking, so many speak mainly French. This church is close to the cruise ship docks that offers a stunning view of the Fjord. A visit to this church is definitely worth a detour.
