Come and discover the former Augustinian convent church built at the beginning of the 16th century and its furnishings.

The building houses a rich collection of 18th- and 19th-century liturgical furnishings, including an exceptional series of neo-Gothic stained-glass windows created in the 19th century, during the revival of this art form. The visit will also provide an opportunity to learn about the restoration and enhancement project for the site, with a focus on restoring the original boundaries of the convent enclosure and the walkway. The project's objectives, the heritage choices made, and the various phases of the construction will be presented to provide a better understanding of the challenges involved in preserving, transmitting, and promoting this exceptional heritage.

Open for self-guided visits Saturday and Sunday from 10am to 12pm and from 14pm to 18pm

Guided tours on Saturday and Sunday at 10:30 am and 14:30 pm
