Montérégie, derived from the Latin form of the name Mont-Royal (mons regius), owes its name to the five hills that form a line between the island of Montreal and the Appalachians. This territory of 11,000 km² is brimming with historical events that have shaped Quebec as we know it today. Discover the treasures of the four different tourist sectors of the region: Montérégie-West, South Shore, Richelieu River, and Montérégie-East.
