Old Parliament Building (Quebec) was the site of the seat of government of Lower Canada, Canada West, Province of Canada and Quebec.
It was located in what is Parc Montmorency today, the site of two Parliament buildings from 1791 to 1883.
The first building on the site was the Chapel of Bishop's Palace, which was ordered built by Bishop Saint-Vallier from 1693 to 1695. In 1777 the building was rented to the British government to house the Legislative Council under orders from then Governor General Guy Carleton, 1st Baron Dorchester. From 1791 to 1838 it was home to the House of Assembly and Legislative Council of Lower Canada.
Several Parliament Buildings were built at this site:
The parliament building was a Greek Revival structure with a dome in the central structure flanked by two wings. Built between 1830 and 1850, it was destroyed by a fire in 1854.
