Louis S. St. Laurent | The General Store

This event is over.
Jun 15, 2024 ~ Sep 2, 2024

From June 15 to September 2, 2024.

Visit the general store that belonged to Louis S. St. Laurent's father, Jean-Baptiste-Moïse, and discover an old-time country ambience.

The counters and shelves, all authentic, are covered with reproductions of articles evocative of daily life in a village at the turn of the century.

The authenticity of the store is enhanced by conversations around the iron stove, and by various items of that time, such as whalebone corsets, chamber pots and washboards.

In the general store warehouse, you can watch a multimedia production that offers a detailed overview of the legal and political career of Louis S. St. Laurent. You will be delighted by this 20-minute presentation, which provides a faithful and realistic portrait of one of the most turbulent periods in Canadian history (1882-1973).
