Manoir Papineau, Manor house in Montebello, Canada

The historic manor features four prominent towers and stands on elevated ground overlooking the Ottawa River at the midpoint between Gatineau and Montreal.

The construction of this Gothic Revival mansion began in 1850 under Louis-Joseph Papineau, a French-Canadian political leader who returned from exile in Europe.

The interior preserves original furnishings across multiple rooms, including dining areas and living spaces that reflect the lifestyle of 19th-century Canadian elite.

The site welcomes educational groups from September to October and May to June, with guided tours explaining the architectural and historical elements.

The manor's design incorporates Greek Revival sculptural elements and features an unusual arrangement of reception rooms influenced by a former conservatory layout.
