Church of La Visitation-de-la-Bienheureuse-Vierge-Marie, Historic Catholic church in Sault-au-Récollet, Montreal, Canada.

The Church of La Visitation features fieldstone walls with a modified facade constructed between 1850 and 1870 using cut stone materials.

The initial construction of the church started in 1749 under Priest Guillaume Chambon, with the first mass held in 1751 and consecration by Henri-Marie du Breil de Pontbriand in 1752.

Located at 1847 Gouin Boulevard East in Montreal, the church maintains active religious services and stands as part of the protected heritage area.
