The Louis-Hippolyte La Fontaine House is an 18th-century French-Canadian style residence built in 1766, now preserved as a municipal heritage museum in Boucherville, Quebec.
Originally constructed in 1766 in the old village of Boucherville at the corner of Notre-Dame and Louis-Hippolyte-La Fontaine streets, the house was moved in one piece to De la Broquerie Historic Park in 1964. It is located today at 314 Marie-Victorin Boulevard.
The building served as the childhood home of Louis-Hippolyte La Fontaine from 1813 to 1820. It was designated a Québec cultural property on 16 March 1965, and a protected area surrounding the house was established in 1976.[1]
Today, the site is operated by the City of Boucherville and features a permanent exhibition on the ground floor.[2]
