The Notre-Dame Cathedral Basilica is a Minor basilica in Ottawa, Canada located on 385 Sussex Drive in the Lower Town neighborhood. It was designated a National Historic Site of Canada in 1990.
Antoine Robillard and Father John Francis Cannon who requested a Neo-classical design. The site was originally home to the small wooden St. Jacques Church built in 1832. This structure was destroyed in 1841 to make way for a larger church, designed by local builder.
However, in 1844, after the lower section was completed, the Oblate Fathers (OMI) assumed stewardship of the parish and Father Pierre-Adrien Telmon was sent from France to finish the construction. Father Telmon decided to redesign the church into a Neo-Gothic structure, a style that was growing in popularity. This result in the lower features, such as the main entrance, being Neo-Classical, while the upper portions of the structure are Neo-Gothic.
