Trois-Rivières

Trois-Rivières is best known in Quebec for its setting at the meeting of the Saint-Maurice and St. Lawrence rivers. Founded in 1634, it ranks among Canada’s oldest permanent French settlements; its name recalls the three channels that were once visible at the Saint-Maurice mouth. The historic centre reflects the city’s long life as a river port, while the pulp-and-paper trade shaped its industrial identity for generations. The Musée POP and the Boréalis museum explore regional life and the paper industry, adding cultural depth to this riverside city between Montréal and Québec City.
