Rouville-Campbell Manor, Manor house in Mont-Saint-Hilaire, Canada.
Rouville-Campbell Manor is a red brick country house with Tudor-style architectural details, situated on the eastern bank of the Richelieu River in Mont-Saint-Hilaire. The structure displays multiple roof peaks, two and a half stories, and projecting sections that give the building a dynamic composition.
The manor was built in 1832 by René Hertel de Rouville and gained its present form through major renovations between 1853 and 1860 under Thomas Edmund Campbell's ownership. These changes reflected the Campbell family's taste and means, shaping the property throughout the following century.
The name joins two families: the Hertel de Rouville seigneurie granted in 1694 and the Campbells, owners from 1844 to 1955. In 1996 comedian Yvon Deschamps and singer Judi Richards bought the manor and staged comedy shows in one of its rooms. The salon, decorated with marquetry, runs the full width of the ground floor.
The manor stands at 125, chemin des Patriotes Sud, on the east bank of the Richelieu River at the foot of Mont Saint-Hilaire, about 30 km east of Montreal. The site is reached by road from the Montérégie network; the grounds and gardens are laid out around the house and stables. The building was closed for renovation after the City of Mont-Saint-Hilaire received it as a gift in 2022, with reopening announced for 2026 with the partner Belvoir.
The stables, built in the same style as the house on an L-shaped plan, have a roof of standing-seam sheet metal, and the adjoining open shed (préau) is carried on a cast-iron colonnade. When the site became a hotel, kitchens and a dining room were installed in the stables and the shed was closed off with a curtain wall.
