Culture, arts and heritage Leisure activities Religious heritage Outdoor Mount Royal, Outremont and Westmount Montréal

A celebration of Montréal's religious, cultural, historical, architectural and environmental heritage, the Notre-Dame-des-Neiges Cemetery is Canada's largest Catholic cemetery: since 1854, more than 900,000 people have been buried there. Situated on the magnificent Mount Royal, this tranquil testament to a people and its country has, over the years, become not only a natural haven for local flora and fauna but a home to rare tree species.
