Old Hull chronicles

Gatineau's history is relatively recent. In the beginning, the land was inhabited by the Algonquin Anishinaabe people, and this trail passes through their unceded traditional territory. Some two hundred years ago, other people, each in their own way, started leaving their mark on the region, turning it over time into Quebec's fourth largest city. There is so much to tell! For these first chronicles, we focus on Old Hull, today known as Vieux-Hull, one of Gatineau's oldest sectors.

The Culture Trail's program was made possible thanks to financial support from the Ministère de la Culture et des Communications du Québec (MCCQ).
