Maison du Frère-Moffet, Heritage wooden house in Ville-Marie, Canada.
The Maison du Frère-Moffet stands as a one-and-a-half-story wooden dwelling with a gabled roof and rectangular guillotine windows in Témiscamingue region.
Built in 1881 by Brother Joseph Moffet, this residence initially served as accommodation for farm workers and missionaries passing through the area.
The house functions as a museum presenting permanent exhibitions about Joseph Moffet and the colonization of Témiscamingue between 1881 and 1920.
Visitors can explore the house through guided tours led by storytellers who share detailed accounts of early Témiscamingue settlement history.
The structure, moved five times since its construction, remains the oldest standing building in the Abitibi-Témiscamingue region of Quebec.
