Saint Irenaeus Church is a little-known gem in the Golden Square Mile area of Montréal, Canada. Its flawless Romanesque Revival style, built in 1871, makes it easily recognizable amidst the grand mansions that surround it. Inside the church, marvel at the breathtaking 15th-century stained-glass windows, painted wooden statues and religious mosaics that adorned the interior. Its dedicated parishioners and staff still retain the warmth and serenity that visitors sense when looking upon the church. Take a walk around the outside of the church to appreciate its magnificent Italianate design, and imagine the bell tower ringing on a Sunday morning. Even if there are no services while you visit, Saint Irenaeus Church remains as a vibrant reminder of Montréal's religious past.
