Interpretive garden and apothecary's square

What a great find! We missed the guided tour, our mistake! It would certainly have been very interesting.

I didn’t visit the manor, I stopped on the grounds opposite for a picnic with very beautiful views of the river.

This autumn, I had the pleasure of visiting the Mauvais-de-Jeunet mansion, and honestly, it is a place that deserves to be discovered by all those who share a passion for history and antiques.

What a magnificent manor! Another heritage treasure to discover and preserve. Its construction dates back to 1734, during the era of New France. Inside, you’ll find numerous beautifully curated exhibits: reconstructions, collections of artifacts, explanatory panels, and videos. The passage of time hasn’t diminished the beauty of the place. The charm and history behind the manor have been carefully preserved. The spirit of its former owners still lingers.

A very interesting visit. The guide was really friendly and knew the history of the manor and its owners in great detail. We had a nice chat with Melody.

Very interesting, rich in heritage information. The guide was knowledgeable, engaging, and insightful on the subject. A must-see for history buffs! 👍

A must-see if you’re on Île d’Orléans. This elegant 1700s mansion is beautifully restored. A self-guided tour is available, explaining everything in detail, and there are also excellent written presentations in both French and English. Three floors—visit them all!

I really enjoyed the tour (with the audio guide), the history, the fact that you can visit all the floors, the garden, and the apothecary’s section with the labels indicating the herbs, vegetables, and fruits! I highly recommend a stop at the Manor! The tour price is very affordable! And you can see everything quite quickly, so it’s convenient for continuing to explore the island afterward!

Following our visit to the Drouin house on the other side of the island, we visited the manor house one Sunday afternoon to learn more about how the wealthiest people of the time lived. We were welcomed by the director of the establishment, who also served as our guide during the tour.
