Le Sanctuaire du Mont-Royal (also known as Le Sanctuaire) is a multi-phase condominium, commercial, athletic and medical complex located in the Outremont neighbourhood of Montreal, Quebec, Canada. The complex consists of seven phases (buildings), which contain a total of 925 residential units.[4] Le Sanctuaire was built by Montreal-based luxury developer René Lépine Sr., head of Groupe Lépine.[6][5][9][8][1]

In total, the buildings amount to 139,355 square meters, which make them over 1.5 million square feet in size.[4] The facades of the buildings are made of reinforced concrete.[13] Construction officially started in 1981 and the buildings were completed in 1990.[13] The project is considered by many to be an iconic modern Montreal landmark.[14]
