Heritage and discovery
With its rich legacy of architectural heritage and as the birthplace of Montreal’s industrial activity, a captivating journey through time awaits you. You will discover historical and sometimes hidden places that have lost nothing of their former grandeur. Be sure to add the many murals, parks, and churches to your itinerary, so you don’t miss anything during your visit. In Griffintown, several buildings that have stood the test of time bear witness to the early industrial period: old forges and foundries, production plants, railway viaduct, gas and coal warehouses... all these buildings contribute to the historic character of the district. In Little Burgundy, discover jazz and colors. Rue Coursol (pictured), little known to both Montrealers and tourists, is full of unusual, colorful little houses. Also, the mural in honor of the great Oscar Peterson, famous Montreal jazz pianist who died in 2007, is a must-see. Finally, in Saint-Henri, you can follow in the footsteps of Gabrielle Roy’s first novel published in 1945, Bonheur d’Occasion, which tells the story of life in this district at the time of the Second World War. And remember to check out the turn of the century buildings by architect Ludger Lemieux like Fire Station 23, and the St. Zotique and St. Irénée churches.
