The first slab of this memorial was erected prior to the 1968 Unification, at a time when the Longue Pointe military installation was the Home Station of the Royal Canadian Ordnance Corps. After Unification, the installation was transferred to the Army and eventually became known as Garrison Montreal or Garnison Monreal, and a second slab added to the memorial.

The stone façade of the remains of the Notre-Dame-de-Foy church bears an engraved commemorative plaque. That plaque mentions the main historical events linked to the monument, including its destruction in 1760 by British General James Murray during the battle of Sainte-Foy. Brief history: 1719 to 1722: construction of a stone church on the site occupied today by Visitation Park on land donated by members of the Pinguet family; April 27th, 1760: British General James Murray, who had food and ammunition stocked in the Notre-Dame-de-Foy church, ordered that it be burned down as the French army approaches, under the command of chevalier François-Gaston de Lévis; April 28th, 1760: battle of Sainte-Foy, on land occupied today bay des Braves Park and des Braves Avenue, Quebec; 1762 to 1774: reconstruction of the Notre-Dame-de-Foy church; General Murray donates 25 pounds to that effect. The walls and vestry of the Notre-Dame-de-Foy church resisted a new fire in 1977. The creation of Visitation Park, in 1998, has enhanced the presentation of its remains.

LE MANEGE DE LA GRANDE ALLÉE
THE GRANDE ALLÉE DRILL HALL

Le manège de la Grande Allée constitue un exemple
impressionnant de manège militaire qui a conservé son
terrain d’exercice d’origine. Conçu par Eugène-Étienne
Taché, fonctionnaire et architecte québécois, ce bâtiment
de pierre a été érigé en 1887 et agrandi en 1913. Avec
son toit abrupt à pignon, ses tours coniques et ses
motifs fantaisistes, il forme un des premiers exemples
du style Château d’inspiration française. Le choix de
ce style, unique dans le cas des manèges militaires de
l’époque au Canada, traduit bien l’intérêt manifesté par
Québec, vers la fin du XIXe siècle, pour ses origines
françaises.

The Grande Allée Drill Hall is an impressive example
of a drill hall that retains its original parade square.
Designed by Eugène-Étienne Taché, a Quebec public
servant and architect, the stone building was completed
in 1887, with an addition in 1913. The steeply pitched
gable roof, conical towers and fanciful decorative details
of the drill hall make it an early example of the
French-inspired Château style. The use of the style here
is unique among Canadian drill halls of this period and
reflects the late 19th century interest in the historic
French roots of the city.
