Government House (Quebec)
Official residence in Quebec from 1870 to 1966 / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is about the provincial Government House of Quebec. For the federal Government House in Quebec, see Citadelle of Quebec.
Quebec's Government House, known as Spencer Wood, was the viceregal residence of Quebec. It was built in 1854. Located at Bois-de-Coulonge Park[1] (upstream of the Plains of Abraham and overlooking Anse-au-Foulon) in Sillery, it was purchased by the Quebec government in 1870, and served as the residence of Quebec lieutenant governors until 1966, when a major fire destroyed the main residence.[2]
