Lonely Planet review for Cathédrale St-Vincent
The town's centrepiece was constructed between the 12th and 18th centuries, but damage during WWII was severe. A mosaic plaque on the floor of the nave marks the spot where Jacques Cartier received the blessing of the bishop of St-Malo before his 'voyage of discovery' to Canada in 1535. Cartier's tomb – all that remains of it post-1944 is his entombed head – is in a chapel on the north side of the choir.
