Manoir Montmorency, Historical villa in Beauport, Canada
The Manoir Montmorency stands near the Montmorency Falls, featuring architectural elements that reflect the colonial period of Quebec's development.
Frederick Haldimand, governor general of Canada, constructed the original manor in 1781, establishing what became the first vacation residence in Canadian territory.
The manor demonstrates the evolution of Quebec's architectural heritage through its Palladian design and subsequent modifications by various prominent owners.
The reconstructed manor, located 12 kilometers east of Quebec City, provides guided tours that explain the property's connection to Canadian history.
The Duke of Kent, father of Queen Victoria, resided in this manor from 1791 to 1794, leading to its former designation as Kent House.
