Confessions of an old rectory

Since 1816, the old rectory has been a witness to Quebec’s rural history. The site was a gathering point from Samuel de Champlain’s arrival in the 17th century until the building was acquired by the Quebec government in the sixties. Many figures who were involved in the evolution of everyday life in Quebec have since then become the guardians of our collective memory.
