ArchitecTour virtuel - Montreal's parks, yesterday and today

  • 1 minute reading

To round out our 2021 season, themed "Montreal on Vacation!", the Heritage Montreal team invites you to take a virtual tour of Montreal's parks.

Our volunteer guide Catherine presents the history of urban parks, which appeared in the 19th century in large North American cities in response to industrialization. Conceived as places to walk and relax, parks helped to beautify the city and provide green spaces for the urban population.

  • Research and script: Nancy Dunton and Amélie Roy-Bergeron
  • Guide: Catherine Lennartz
  • Director and editor: Gary Paitre
  • Illustrations and plans: Béatrice Bachand-Bergeron and Laure Barrachina

Thank you to our partners of the 2021 edition of the ArchitecTours:

This project is funded under the Agreement on the cultural development of Montreal between Ville de Montréal and gouvernement du Québec.
