Quebec City may be the only fortified city north of Mexico, but it welcomes visitors with open arms. Explore the Citadel, where you might catch Canadian troops staging a military ceremony. As for food, you could splurge on afternoon tea at the Chateau Frontenac, or do as the locals do and snack on poutine—french fries with gravy and cheese curds.

We also offer various events; including a Writers' Festival, concerts, readings and lectures. Consider renting the Centre as the perfect place to hold your events.
We did this last minute and decided to join the tour. Thought changing our shoes for Crocs was interesting but then understood when we saw the carvings in the prison floor. Very interesting tour of the old jail and informative tour guide. The small library is very beautiful and inviting. Wished we had more time to take a book and curl up in one of their cushy chairs.

If you have ever loved a library, the peacefulness, the smell of old books, the creaking of old wooden floors, make sure this is on your list to visit in Quebec City. This English Library in the heart of Vieux Quebec is overflowing with charm and history. Having once served as a prison, and later converted to a library and historical society, one can almost feel the stories incased in the walls and books here. Louise Penny's novel, "Bury Your Dead' is set here, and well worth the read. There are English speaking tours, but it's also delightful to go on your own, wander, relax and soak up the magical atmosphere.

This would be the place people would go to worship. The church has been transformed into a library that is super modern and so amazing. It is very near Rue St-Jean and still in Old Town, you it is right near many things in Quebec City that you will want to visit.
