Victoriaville, Administrative center in Arthabaska, Canada

Victoriaville spreads across 86 square kilometers along the Nicolet River, featuring industrial zones, residential areas, and recreational spaces at 148 meters elevation.

The municipality formed in 1861 bears Queen Victoria's name and merged with Arthabaska and Saint-Victoire-d'Arthabaska municipalities in 1993 to create modern Victoriaville.

The Festival International de Musique Actuelle draws musicians and audiences each spring, while the Laurier Museum preserves national heritage in a former prime minister's residence.

The Parc-Linéaire Des Bois-Francs bike trail network connects the town center to Mont Arthabaska, providing extensive cycling routes through the region.

The region earned recognition as Capitale des Bois-Francs through its substantial hardwood production and manufacturing of furniture, caskets, and hockey sticks.
