Parc Jeanne-Mance, Urban park in Plateau Mont-Royal, Montreal, Canada.
Parc Jeanne-Mance is a green space in the Plateau Mont-Royal neighborhood with tennis courts, soccer fields, and ice rinks for different seasons. The park runs alongside Park Avenue facing Mount Royal and includes dog areas and children's pools during summer months.
The park was originally called Fletcher's Field before being renamed in 1990 to honor Jeanne Mance, the co-founder of Montreal. Jeanne Mance also founded the Hotel-Dieu hospital, which shaped early medical care in the city.
The park serves as a social hub where neighbors gather for outdoor concerts and cultural festivals throughout the seasons. It is a place where local families and friends spend time together in a relaxed setting.
The park is open from early morning until midnight and offers different activities depending on the season. Visitors should note that outdoor pools operate during summer while ice rinks function in winter months.
During winter months, a cross-country ski trail of about 1.3 kilometers is set up through the park, attracting winter sports enthusiasts. This seasonal feature makes the space a rare Nordic sports destination within an urban setting.
