Château Beauce, Heritage mansion in Sainte-Marie, Canada.

The three-story Château Beauce features light-colored brick walls, a mansard roof with embossed metal, and a polygonal observation tower at the corner.

Built in 1903 for notary Georges-Siméon Théberge, the mansion transformed into a convent in 1932 when religious communities acquired the property.

Between 1944 and 1959, the mansion served as a retreat center where over 20,000 women participated in religious gatherings and spiritual activities.

The building received heritage status protection in 2020, requiring authorization from cultural authorities for any modifications to interior or exterior elements.

During the 2019 floods in Quebec, the mansion sustained water damage that resulted in structural issues and created substantial restoration requirements.
