Description:
|
VIEUX QUEBEC. The Ursuline Community of Québec includes four main parts. The Museum focuses on the history of the Ursulines in New France, from their earliest days up to the present, with exhibits that include stunning works of art and artifacts. The Chapel is filled with beautiful art, mostly from the 18th-century. The information centre offers a fascinating look at the life of Marie de l'Incarnation, who founded the Ursuline community in New France. Finally, there's the Monastère des Ursulines, which is the oldest school for girls in North America and is the only part of the complex not open to the public. |
