Secrets of the Memphre

Dive into history

One of the most important lakes in southern Quebec, Lake Memphremagog is a vast body of water, a portion of which lies within the United States. What was its role in the colonization of the Eastern Townships? In cross-border trade? In the creation of a tourism culture in Quebec? What objects and mysteries have been found in its depths?

Le lac Memphrémagog est le cœur battant de notre région depuis la Préhistoire. De la présence autochtone ancestrale aux découvertes récentes, ses eaux ont nourri la vie et l’imaginaire. Plongez dans ses profondeurs et ses légendes, où artefacts oubliés et mythes anciens révèlent l’histoire humaine tissée autour de ses rives.
