Saint-Michel Basilica-Cathedral, Gothic Revival cathedral and minor basilica in Sherbrooke, Canada.

Saint-Michel Basilica-Cathedral is a Gothic Revival church in Sherbrooke with a striking interior design. It features 105 stained glass windows created by Parisian artist Rafaël Lardeur, each crafted with intricate detail.

Construction took place in two separate phases: the lower section rose between 1914 and 1917, while the upper portion was completed between 1956 and 1957. This split timeline shows how the building project stretched across multiple decades.

The archbishop's chapel displays paintings by Ozias Leduc, a renowned artist of religious scenes in Quebec. His works shape the sacred space and reflect the local artistic tradition.

It sits at 130 rue de la Cathédrale in Sherbrooke and opens to visitors during weekday services. Checking times ahead of your visit helps you plan around the mass schedule.

The main facade features a large window depicting the four Evangelists, bringing together traditional religious symbolism in one artwork. This makes the entrance a striking visual focal point for anyone approaching the building.
