About Old Montréal  

Back in 1605, the French Colonist Samuel de Champlain founded a trading post near a location called Place Royale. Over the coming centuries, Canadian society would drastically change, and the names of several key venues would be replaced. Place Royale eventually became known as Old Montréal. Though its name changed, its status as a cornerstone of French-Canadian culture remained the same.

Even in modern times, Canadian citizens and tourists all revere Old Montréal. Many consider Old Montréal to be the heart of Quebec, let alone modern Montréal. We can see why – several major streets flow into Old Montréal, including Ville-Marie and McGill Street. Old Montréal is also close to a bevy of Canadian landmarks, such as the Saint Lawerence River.
