Eglise St-Joachim (1/2) | Chateauguay Today
St-Joachim Church of Chateauguay
This St-Joachim church (with its two central symmetrical windows, bell tower and oval window) dates back to the 1770s. The Chateauguay area had already been settled for 100 years. Charles Lemoyne had been granted the seigneury of Chateauguay in 1673. We know that in that earliest period there had been a St-Joachim chapel on Ile-Ste-Bernard and that by the 1730s there was a wooden church built near the present site on Youville Blvd.
