English: Ermatinger–Clergue National Historic Site, Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario.

ERMATINGER HOUSE

LA MAISON ERMATINGER

This house, built between 1814 and 1823 by Charles Ermatinger of the North West Company, is the oldest surviving house in northwestern Ontario. Constructed when Sault Ste. Marie was still a small fur trading post of the Upper Lakes, this fine house soon became the centre of the district's business and social life, and was noted by such visitors as Lord Selkirk, Anna Jameson, Sir John Richardson, Paul Kane and George Catlin.

Bâtie, de 1814 à 1823, par Charles Ermatinger de la Compagnie du Nord-Ouest, cette maison est la plus ancienne dans le nord-ouest de l'Ontario. Le Sault-Sainte-Maire n'était encore qu'un poste de traite de fourrures aux grands lacs, alors qu'elle devint le centre de la vie sociale et commerciale de la région. Des visiteurs distingués, lord Selkirk, Anna Jameson, sir John Richardson, Paul Kane et George Catlin s'y arrêtèrent.
