HISTORIC SITE OF THE MAISON LAMONTAGNE
This typical construction is the only half-timbered housing in Quebec and the oldest house in eastern Quebec. This house built in 1744 by Marie-Agnès Lepage, daughter of Lord Pierre Lepage of Rimouski, and her husband Basile Côté is the oldest house in eastern Quebec. The timbers give it a unique character, since this type of architecture, formerly commonly used, has become very rare because of Quebec's climatic conditions. Visitors will discover antique furniture (eighteenth and nineteenth centuries) and an exhibition of archeology and architecture.
