The Hotel Tadoussac’s little cousin, sporting the same colour pattern, the chapel commonly called “La Petite Chapelle” (and at one time known as “The Indian Chapel”) was built in 1747 by Jesuit missionaries who sought to convert the local Innu people. Tadoussac’s Petite Chapelle is the oldest surviving wooden church in North America, and home to a collection of unique religious artifacts.
