Monastère Notre-Dame de Mistassini, Trappist monastery in Dolbeau-Mistassini, Canada
The Monastère Notre-Dame de Mistassini stands along the shores of Lac Saint-Jean, featuring traditional monastic architecture and surrounding agricultural grounds for self-sustenance.
Founded in 1892 by monks from Oka monastery, the institution received official abbey status in 1935 and relocated to new facilities five kilometers away in 1980.
The monastery maintains Cistercian traditions through daily prayer schedules, agricultural work, and the production of goods according to Trappist monastic guidelines.
Visitors can purchase monastery-made chocolates, including seasonal chocolate-covered blueberries, at the on-site shop located at 100 Route des Trappistes.
The monastery operates its own chocolate factory, producing specialty confections that contribute to the financial sustainability of the religious community.
