Place des Ardilliers

Place des Ardilliers is the main square in the settlement of Miquelon on the French overseas collectivity of Saint-Pierre and Miquelon. It's a popular gathering spot for locals and visitors alike. The square is named after Notre-Dame des Ardilliers, a historic church located nearby. Construction of the church began in 1776 and was named after a small statue of the Virgin Mary that was discovered by a farmer. The statue was found in a field called "ardille" which means "clay" in French, thus the name of the church and the square. The church was designated a historical monument in 2011.

Miquelon-Langlade is the larger and less populated of the two communes making up the French overseas collectivity of Saint Pierre and Miquelon, located to the south of Newfoundland in the Gulf of St. Lawrence. It consists of three geological islands: Miquelon, Langlade and Le Cap, connected with tombolos.

Saint Pierre and Miquelon is a French archipelago south of the Canadian island of Newfoundland. Sparsely populated Miquelon-­Langlade island contains the Grand Barachois lagoon, home to seabirds and seals. The busier Saint Pierre island has a distinct French atmosphere, with a cathedral and the Musée Heritage, which celebrates regional history. An island nearby, Île-aux-Marins, features an abandoned fishing village.
