In July 1850, the Archbishop of Quebec Joseph Signay authorized the construction of a branch church of the Saint-Roch church in the neighboring district of Saint-Sauveur, whose population had exploded following the fire of 1845. This first church, designed by the architect Michel Patry, measures 45 meters by 21. It was opened for worship on the 29th. The Oblate Fathers of Mary Immaculate take charge of the religious life of Saint-Sauveur. However, the church was destroyed a few years later, during the Great Fire of Quebec.
current church
[edit]The current church is built from the remains of the first church. The old walls are reused, which will have the effect of preserving the traditional and simple aspect of the initial church. The organ and the pulpit were delivered in 1873. However, the facade was completely redesigned. The bell tower, inspired by the Church of the Sainte-Trinité in Paris, equipped with a clock and surmounting a masonry tower, was built in 1892. Around the same time, the painter Charles Huot completed the creation of the imposing works covering the ceilings and walls. In 1898, Delphis-Adolphe Beaulieu was commissioned to design the stained glass windows in the nave. The interior of the church was completed between 1867 and 1900.
On August 8, 2017, Minister Luc Fortin announced that the church was part of a short list of eight churches that will benefit from a fund of $15M over 10 years. [[Category:Roman Catholic churches in Quebec]] [[Category:Churches in Quebec City]] [[Category:WikiProject Quebec articles]]
