Activity itinerary

Fontaine de Tourny (Pass by)
Although only recently installed in Québec City, the Tourny Fountain has a fascinating history. Six copies of this work, designed by French sculptor Mathurin Moreau in 1853, were made, and it was exhibited at the 1855 World's Fair in Paris. Here you will have to look around to find the answer to our challenge to advance to the new location and learn the storey of this place.
St. Louis Gate (Pass by)
The first Saint-Louis Gate was in the late 17th century under the French Regime at its present location. During the British Regime, the army closed the gate doors at night to restrict travel between the city and outlying areas, which disrupted trade and hampered the city's development. Here you will have to look around to find the answer to our challenge to advance to the new location and learn the storey of this place.
Cannonball Tree (Pass by)
Everyone familiar with Old Quebec is familiar with the tall old elm tree on Rue Saint-Louis at the corner of Rue du Corps-de-Garde, and what appears to be a large cannonball trapped in its gnarly roots. Calèche drivers slow their horse's gait to point it out to their passengers. Curious passers-by invariably stop and try to figure out how the cannonball could have got there, and when. Here you will have to look around to find the answer to our challenge to advance to the new location and learn the storey of this place.
Chapelle des Ursulines (Pass by)
Founded in 1639, the Couvent des Ursulines is the oldest institution of learning for women in North America. Its chapel is where French general Louis-Joseph Montcalm was buried after he died in the 1759 battle that decided the fate of New France. Here you will have to look around to find the answer to our challenge to advance to the new location and learn the storey of this place.
Cathedral of the Holy Trinity (Pass by)
In 1804 the Cathedral of the Holy Trinity was the first Anglican church built outside Britain. Now its a National Historic Site of Canada (1989). The Cathedral designed in the neoclassic Palladian style, and it was modelled on the St Martin-in-the-field Church in Trafalgar. Here you will have to look around to find the answer to our challenge to advance to the new location and learn the storey of this place.
Place de l'Hotel de Ville (Pass by)
The public square was then known as Grande Place, Grande Place de la Haute Ville, and Place du Marché. In 1900, the public square was renamed Place de l'Hôtel-de-Ville following the construction of city hall, though it was also known as place Notre-Dame and place de la Basilique until the middle of the 20th century. Here you will have to look around to find the answer to our challenge to advance to the new location and learn the storey of this place.
Seminaire du Quebec (Pass by)
The Séminaire de Québec was a society of Catholic priests founded in 1663 by François de Laval, who would become the first bishop of Québec. He established this society to train priests, evangelize the Aboriginals, and administer the parishes of the colony as a whole. Here you will have to look around to find the answer to our challenge to advance to the new location and learn the storey of this place.
Monument Samuel De Champlain (Pass by)
This monument, created in honour of the founder of Québec City, a work by Paul Chevré, was inaugurated in 1898. Here you will have to look around to find the answer to our challenge to advance to the new location and learn the storey of this place.
Monument Jean-Paul Lemieux (Pass by)
Jean-Paul Lemieux, (November 18, 1904, December 7, 1990) was one of the foremost twentieth-century painters in Canada. He worked in several different styles, as represented by his five artistic periods. Here you will have to look around to find the answer to our challenge to advance to the new location and learn the storey of this place.
Place Royale (Pass by)
This is the precise location where Samuel de Champlain built the first permanent French settlement in the Americas. Erected in 1608, his first abitation was a fort, store, trading post, and residence all rolled into one. That's why Place Royal is considered the cradle of French North America. Here you will have to look around to find the answer to our challenge to advance to the new location and learn the storey of this place.
Parliament Building (Pass by)
The Parliament Building (French: Hôtel du Parlement) is an eight-floor building in Quebec City and home to the Parliament of Quebec, composed of the Lieutenant-Governor and the National Assembly. The building was designed by architect Eugène-Étienne Taché and was built from 1877 to 1886.
City Hall of Quebec City (Pass by)
It was inaugurated on September 15, 1896, in the Old Quebec area. The building slopes downward as it was built on a hill and was once home to the Jesuit College (Jesuit Barracks) from the 1730s to 1878. The city hall was designated a National Historic Site of Canada in 1984.
Notre-Dame de Québec Basilica-Cathedral (Pass by)
Notre-Dame-de-Québec has served the first Catholic parish in North America ever since 1664. It acquired cathedral status in 1674 when it became the seat of the huge Diocese of Québec, and 200 years later, that of a basilica. Its history has been marked by shelling, fires, and multiple reconstructions and renovations.
