Notre-Dame-du-Cap Shrine, National shrine in Cap-de-la-Madeleine, Trois-Rivières, Canada.

The Notre-Dame-du-Cap Shrine is a religious complex featuring a modern basilica, historic chapels, manicured gardens, and walking paths in the Cap-de-la-Madeleine district. The oldest chapel on the grounds dates to the early 1700s and anchors the site's spiritual character.

Marian devotion at Cap-de-la-Madeleine dates to 1694, when Paul Vachon founded the Rosary Confraternity. The original chapel was built from 1717 to 1720, and the parishioner-donated statue arrived in 1854. Under curé Luc Désilets from 1867, devotion revived; in 1888 the old chapel became the Sanctuary of Our Lady of the Most Holy Rosary, and the large basilica was raised to minor basilica rank in 1964.

The name Notre-Dame-du-Cap comes from a statue of the Virgin donated in 1854, the year the Immaculate Conception dogma was proclaimed; it now stands in the old chapel. Devotion began in 1694 with the Rosary Confraternity founded under curé Paul Vachon, was revived by curé Léandre Tourigny in 1845, and grew from 1867 under curé Luc Désilets. On 22 June 1888, during the consecration of the old parish church as the Sanctuary of Our Lady of the Most Holy Rosary, Father Frédéric Jansoone, Désilets and Pierre Lacroix reported seeing the statue's usually lowered eyes look straight ahead for five to ten minutes, the "prodigy of the eyes".

The site sits on the Saint Lawrence River in the Cap-de-la-Madeleine district of Trois-Rivières, with the old chapel, the basilica and the gardens grouped on one riverside grounds. The old chapel and the small bridge of ice stones are the spots most visitors look for first. Check opening times before setting out, as access to the buildings follows the sanctuary's own hours.

In the mild winter of 1878–1879 the Saint Lawrence would not freeze, so Curé Luc Désilets vowed to dedicate the old church to Mary if she interceded. Wind-driven snow was watered to thicken the ice, and parishioners hauled stones from the south shore over a path nicknamed the Pont des Chapelets, the Rosary Bridge.
