Summary

Description
Français : Le Vieux-Presbytère de Saint-Bruno-de-Montarville, érigé sur la rive du Lac du village, est un monument historique qui est une source de grande fierté pour tous les habitants de la ville. Il est également une attraction touristique importante.

L'habitation fut construite vers 1851 à proximité de l'église catholique sur un terrain donné par le seigneur de Montarville en 1842. En 1960 toutefois, on décide de doter l'église catholique d'un nouveau presbytère, plus moderne et moins dispendieux à entretenir que le vieil immeuble du 19e siècle. L'existence de l'ancien immeuble était donc menacé de démolition jusqu'à ce que le maire de l'époque, Gérard Filion, et le curé de la paroisse, Mgr Gilles Gervais, entreprennent une campagne populaire pour sauvegarder, restaurer et conserver le "vieux presbytère". Classé monument historique national en 1966, l'immeuble fut alors démoli pierre par pierre et entièrement reconstruit sur un emplacement du parc du Lac du village qu'il occupe toujours.


Complètement restauré, le Vieux-Presbytère a été officiellement inauguré sur son nouvel emplacement le 18 février 1967. L'édifice offre aux citoyens des salles de réunions et il constitue un lieu privilégié pour l'exposition des oeuvres d'artistes locaux ou la tenue de cérémonies officielles.
English: The Old Presbytery of Saint-Bruno-de-Montarville, standing on the shores of the village's lake, was constructed in 1851, near the village church on land donated by the seigneur de Montarville in 1842. The building was threatened with destruction after an new presbytery was built in 1960, but a local campaign protested. Instead, the building was classed as a monument historique national in 1966 and was disassembled stone by stone and reconstructed on it's present location, officially inaugurated on 18 February, 1967. It has been used since that time as a art gallery and banquet hall for public rentals and official civic ceremonies.
