Guided tours will be offered to the general public in September at the lovely and historic Hurtibise family home in Westmount. The tours, which will take place on September 24 and 25, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., will be about thirty minutes in duration, and are limited to 15 people per tour.
The Hurtubise house is one of the last remaining French-Canadian stone farmhouses built in the late seventeenth and early eighteenth century on the Island of Montreal. The Hurtibise family was one of the first to settle along Côte Saint-Antoine Road. Jean Hurtubise, son of Louis, who was granted the land in 1699, built the house in 1739. A brick annex was added in the 1870s.
The Hurtibise House is located at 563 Côte Saint-Antoine Road corner of Victoria Avenue in Westmount. For more information, call (514) 989.5510.
