Aerial view of the town of Giffard
In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Quebec was dominated by ultramontanism. This ideology advocates for the Catholic religion to be placed at the centre of all social and political activity. During this period, dozens of large churches were built in Québec City. This image shows the imposing Saint-Ignace-de-Loyola Church that was built in 1934 in the Giffard district.
