Jeanne Mance Monument, Bronze memorial statue at Hôtel-Dieu entrance, Montreal, Canada

The Jeanne Mance Monument is a bronze sculpture depicting the founder caring for an injured colonist, mounted on a granite base beside the Hôtel-Dieu hospital building. The work displays realistic details of early care work and stands in a position where it can be easily seen by people passing through the area.

The monument by Louis-Philippe Hébert was unveiled on September 2, 1909, in front of the Hôtel-Dieu de Montréal. That year marked the 250th anniversary of the 1659 arrival of the first three hospital sisters. Jeanne Mance had come in 1642 to establish Montreal's first hospital, founded in 1645; the institution moved to its present site in 1861.

The monument faces the Hôtel-Dieu de Montréal, the hospital Jeanne Mance came from France in 1642 to establish; the hospital moved to this site in 1861. Its unveiling on September 2, 1909 marked the 250th anniversary of the 1659 arrival of the first three hospital sisters, whose order long ran the hospital. The sculpture shows Mance comforting an injured colonist.

The monument is located on Saint-Urbain Street next to the Musée des Hospitaliers, which displays collections related to medical history. The location is easy to reach and allows visitors to explore both sites during a single visit.

The 1909 unveiling marked the 250th anniversary of the 1659 arrival of the first three hospital sisters, not of Jeanne Mance herself, who came in 1642. Louis-Philippe Hébert shows her comforting an injured colonist, a scene the sources describe but do not date.
