Saint-Jean-Port-Joli is known for its woodcarving. The church has beautiful religious carvings; but, most interesting is the small museum with its collection of creches - and amazingly carvings of a "pregnant" virgin that is displayed during Advent each year leading up to the Birth of Jesus. Amazing!

Saint-jean-port-Joli is such a charming welcoming Town. It is full of artists - sculptures - Everyone seem to be related....when you Know a CARON - founding family, you are sure to become part of the family.I am sure the Church has something to do with the JOY we feel in saint-jean-port-joli.

This Church is one of the oldest in the area and should be a must see for anyone visiting St Jean. The highlight is the wood carving by Bourgeault who was the original wood carver of the famous local style of carving.

One of the reviews under "Eglise saint-Jean-Port-Joli" is really about the wood sculpture museum named 'Musee des Anciens Canadiens' at 332 ave de Gaspe Ouest. It is easily the best museum of wood sculpture in an area full of wood working artisans, and probably the best in Quebec, giving a history of the art as well as many examples of wood sculpting in varioous forms. At the time we were there, an artist was in residence giving explanagtions and demonstrations. In addition, there is a wonderful shope of wood workings available for sale, and the friendly staff can provide answers to most questions on the work. We consider the best stop in Port-Joli to see wood working.

About fifty miles (80 km) east of Quebec City but on the south shore of the St Lawrence River, is Saint-Jean-Port-Joli (pop. c.3,500). Long the home to dozens of artists and craftsmen of all types and their ateliers, it is chiefly renowned as Canada’s (perhaps North America’s) most important centre for wood sculpture. This is mainly because of the Bourgault family who, along with the Carons and others, began generations ago to produce exquisite works depicting traditional themes and everyday scenes from old rural Quebec life. They also wisely trained apprentices to carry on after them. Modern artisans have also recently been creating life-size sculptures of important politicians, sportsmen and entertainment figures (e.g. Harry Potter, Jean Beliveau). Over 250 fine works, large and small, have been gathered for our enjoyment into four galleries at the Musée des Anciens Canadiens. I have been there in the past, and the collection keeps getting better and more varied. Only the fact that it is not very wheelchair-accessible prevents me from giving it an "Excellent" rating. THIS IS A "MUST SEE" DESTINATION FOR EVERY VISITOR TO RURAL QUEBEC.

Eglise de Saint-Jean-Port-Joli can be found in the La Cote-du-Sud portion of the Gaspe Penninsula of Quebec, Canada. The church was built in 1779 and is classified as a National Historic Monument. The inside of the church is a masterpiece of woodcarving. Author Philippe-Aubert de Gaspe was laid to rest under a carved pew near the front of the sanctuary. During the summer months and into early Fall, there is a Creche Exhibit which can be viewed for $4.00. It's impossible to describe in words the beauty of the woodcarvings in the church, so I'll just attach as many photos as possible. Summer, it would seem, is the best time to visit the Gaspe Penninsula in Quebec. With all the farms, it is apparently a "foodie paradise". We decided to drive the Penninsula in September and found that most things were already closed down, and it was difficult to find a campground that was still open. One of the few things that were still open on the Penninsula were the National Parks. We were anxious to visit the the Parks because they boasted of large herds of moose and caribou. It was a great disappointment to find that dogs are not allowed in Quebec's National Parks. We usually travel with one or both of our little dogs in our motorhome. As we could find nothing really of interest that was still open on the Penninsula, we finally turned south into New Brunswick.If you do make it up to the Gaspe Penninsula, make a point to visit Eglise de-Saint-Jean-Port-Joli. It's an incredible place to take a break in your travels.

Eglise possédant 2 clochers. Belle de jour comme de soir avec son éclairage aux clochers. L'intérieur est richement décoré avec beaucoup de pièces de bois sculptées par des artisans de la municipalité. A l'été, il y a une exposition de crèches que des résidents de la place possèdent et ce sont des pièces uniques. A voir !
