HOUSE OF THE JESUITS OF SILLERY
First permanent settlement founded in New France by the Jesuits with an exhibition tracing the history of this mission.
It dates from the early 18th century, but the site's occupation dates back more than 3,000 years! The Saint-Joseph mission was the first permanent settlement founded in New France by the Jesuits, in 1637, to evangelize and settle the Amerindians. The permanent exhibition Mission in New France traces the history of this mission and the encounter between Jesuits, Europeans and First Nations. Several other remains can be found on the site.
