Located in Montebello,
halfway between Hull/Ottawa and Montréal, the Manoir Papineau
National Historic Site represents one of the most treasured heritage
locations in the area surrounding La Petite-Nation and in the
greater Ottawa River region. The Site has been designed primarily
to commemorate Louis-Joseph Papineau, the man who was to become
a leading figure in Canadian politics during the 19th century.
The Site is also designed to showcase the manor house and domain
of "Monte-Bello," the impressive work of architecture
designed and given form by Louis-Joseph Papineau.
