Guided tours about the history and evolution of the former Montreal General Hospital’s architecture
Published on
On September 7 and 8, the Mother d’Youville House will open its doors to the public for the Journées du patrimoine religieux de Montréal. Join us to learn more about the history and evolution of the former General Hospital’s architecture. Built in 1693, it is the fifth oldest building in Montreal and one of the few remaining examples of French Regime architecture on the island. The tour will end inside with a visit to the Hall of the Poor and the refectory. Since the building has been closed to the public for renovations since October 2017, this is an exceptional opportunity to visit us, right before major work begins.
