Historic Churches

A large stone cross stands in Grosses-Coques as a memorial to the first church. The monument remains a symbol of the Acadian pride and spirit, a reminder of the hardships and humble beginnings of this township.

This historic attraction features the site of Clare’s first Acadian cemetery and first mass. In addition to a fenced cemetery area, the site features a commemorative cairn and a small wooden chapel (1892).

Admire the architecture at a majestic stone church!
