Grange Alexander-Solomon-Walbridge

Built in 1882 by Alexander Solomon Walbridge, this twelve-sided barn with twelve gables arranged around a central space has two levels, with a stable on the first level and several sections on the second, all organized around a central turntable designed to facilitate storing the harvest. It is the oldest non-traditional, multi-sided barn in Québec and the only one to have twelve sides. Its rotating mechanism and unique architecture testify to its designer's ingenuity. It was classified a historic monument on May 27th 2004 by the Ministre de la Culture et des Communications du Québec.
