Abbaye St. Benoit Du Lac was founded in 1912, when Monastic settlements were established in Québec's Eastern Townships by monks who had been expelled from France.<br /><br />Today, visitors are welcome to meet the monks and participate in the recitation of Gregorian chants -- many of which were composed prior to 1000 A.D.<br /><br /><br /><br />Want to plan your trip to Canada?
