Here is the highest point of Montreal! #MountRoyalCross Paul Chomedey de Maisonneuve, the city's founder, erected the first cross on Mount Royal in 1643, thereby fulfilling his vow to theVirgin Mary in his prayers to end a disastrous flood. The cross is made of steel and consists of 1,830 pieces joined by 6,000 rivets weighing 26 tons. It is 31.4 metres tall and its arms span 11 metres and it stands 252 metres above the St. Lawrence River. Following the latest renovation, it is lit by 158 18-LED bulbs #MountRoyal #Montreal #Park #MTLMoments #InternationalSymbol #Landmark #PaulChomedeyDeMaisonneuve
