  • Review this attraction

  • Two famous names in Canadian history have beautiful squares directly across from each other. Place Jacques-Cartier (see Place Jacques-Cartier, Montréal) celebrates the French discoverer of Canada (see Jacques Cartier), while Place de la Dauversière honors Jerome le Royer, Sieur de la Dauversière of La Flèche in Anjou, France. Dauversière was the Royal Tax Collector whose idea it was to build a colony here, eventually called Ville-Marie.
