Boucherville, Suburban city in Greater Montreal, Canada.

The city extends along the Saint Lawrence River with residential neighborhoods, commercial areas, and a large industrial park employing 23,000 workers.

Pierre Boucher established the settlement in 1667 as a seigneurial parish, constructing a palisade in 1672 to guard against attacks.

The Sainte-Famille Church, built in 1801, stands as a central religious building representing the French-Canadian architectural heritage of Quebec.

The Louis-Hippolyte-Lafontaine Bridge-Tunnel connects Boucherville directly to Montreal, facilitating daily commutes for the 41,743 residents.

The Îles-de-Boucherville National Park encompasses five islands in the Saint Lawrence River, offering hiking trails and water activities throughout the year.
