Summary edit

Description
Français : Plaque commémorative ayant pour titre « Aux origines de Montréal » apposée à l'édifice l'Éperon de Pointe-à-Callière

« C'est ici que le sieur de Maisonneuve fonda Montréal en 1642. Situé au confluent du Saint-Laurent et de l’ancienne petite rivière Saint-Pierre, l'endroit était bien connu des Autochtones qui s'y rassemblaient depuis des siècles, de même que sur le site de l'actuelle place Royale. Dès leur arrivée, les Français construisirent le fort Ville-Marie. Vers 1688, le gouverneur de Montréal, Louis-Hector de Callière, obtint une partie du terrain et y érigea sa résidence, d’où le nom de pointe à Callière. Ce lieu qui vit naître Montréal fut aussi témoin de sa transformation en l'une des grandes métropoles du Canada. »
