The image showcases an architectural marvel created between 1640 and 1648 by Governor Montmagny as a military exercise ground in the heart of Old Town. Founded by Samuel de Champlain in 1608, this city holds immense historical significance. The photograph is sourced from "A Tour Through the New World America" written by Professor Geo. R. Cromwell and published by C. N. Greig & Co. , London around 1897. It captures the essence of this enchanting location with its charming gardens, pathways, and a majestic spire rising above it all.
