MINDFUL WALK AND GUIDED GARDEN TOUR
In partnership with the Musée des Hospitalières de l’Hôtel-Dieu de Montréal, discover the history of the garden at the Monastery of the Sisters of St. Joseph through this guided tour (in french), enriched by a musical harp walk with Annabelle Renzo.
Visit the “Secret” Garden
Hiden behind a towering stone wall in the heart of the city, the monastery garden is a true oasis of peace. Discover its rich history—from its origins as a nourishing plot in 1861 to the tranquil pleasure garden we know today. You’ll also learn about the heritage buildings of the Hôtel-Dieu.
A few Sundays each month, from May to October, come enjoy a unique experience with our musical garden tours. Offered in collaboration with Sérénité Sonore, each tour begins with an improvised harp walk performed by Annabelle Renzo. In case of rain, the concert will take place in the Chapel of the Immaculate Conception, located in the heart of the garden.
