The "Basilica of Sainte-Anne de Beaupré" (Neo-Romanesque in style) located in Quebec - Canada.

Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré was the mother of the Virgin Mary and the grandmother of Jesus.

Over the past 350 years, this Shrine has become a major pilgrimage site, attracting not only practising Catholics, but also Christians of all denominations, as well as non-Christians and non-believers of all nationalities.

The basilica is also known as a place of miracles. One of the builders of the original church, Louis Guimont, helped build the church despite having severe scoliosis and needing the aid of a crutch. When the church was complete, he was able to walk independently. Subsequent visitors to the church who have prayed have left their canes, crutches and walking aides behind as testament to their healing. The main wall when you first walk into the basilica is now completely covered with crutches.

I will upload pics of the inside tomorrow
