St. Joseph’s Oratory of Mount Royal, situated in Montreal’s Westmount neighborhood, began as a small chapel in 1904 and has since evolved into Canada’s largest church, now a registered National Historic Site. This Roman Catholic basilica features a cryptic church, a museum, and expansive gardens. Visitors can also admire the 56-bell carillon and one of the world’s largest church domes. The oratory stands as a significant pilgrimage site and a testament to architectural and spiritual grandeur.
