Built along more than 20 km of the St. Lawrence River shore, Deschambault-Grondines sits on a large area of limestone, a stone often used and seen in local construction. In this rural landscape shaped by farming land, the river and the seigneurial system, you can clearly see the land divisions established by the French Seigneurial system. This territory owes its unique character to the thousands of men and women who came, settled the land with all their heart and soul. This quiet yet dynamic municipality is home of two sectors where one can admire many heritage buildings surrounded by nature.
