Light bulb
Bulbs from the Mount Royal Cross. This cross is illuminated by 240 bulbs and is 30 metres high. It can be seen from over 80 kilometers away. The current cross recalls the wooden cross erected by the inhabitants of Ville-Marie in 1643. They wanted to thank God for saving the fort from flooding.
