Sainte-Anne de Varennes Basilica, Minor basilica in Varennes, Canada

Sainte-Anne de Varennes Basilica is a Roman Catholic church built from 1884 to 1887 by architects Albert Mesnard and Henri-Maurice Perrault. Its design combines Romanesque and Gothic references. Inside are works by Guido Nincheri, Félix Mesnard and Antoine Durenne, a Casavant organ enlarged in 2007, and a statue of Saint Anne.

The current structure was built between 1884 and 1887, replacing three earlier churches that occupied the same site starting from 1692. Each predecessor represented a phase in the community's religious development across more than 200 years.

The basilica is a place of devotion to Saint Marguerite d'Youville, whose remains have rested in the transept tomb since 8 December 2010. Two chapels near the church are dedicated to Saint Anne and Saint Joachim, and a statue of Saint Anne stands in the building. The Casavant organ, in neo-classical style, was enlarged in 2007 by Levesque-Roussin.

The basilica stands in Varennes on the south shore of the Saint Lawrence, across from Montreal. The building is under the Diocese of Saint-Jean-Longueuil, and the two side chapels, one to Saint Anne and one to Saint Joachim, stand near the church. Look for the Casavant organ, enlarged in 2007 by Levesque-Roussin.

The basilica holds the remains of Saint Marguerite d'Youville, founder of the Grey Nuns, placed in the transept tomb on 8 December 2010. The church is also a place of devotion to her, and two chapels near the building are dedicated to Saint Anne and Saint Joachim.
