Agriculture and the art of brewing at Terre à Boire

Terre à Boire is an agricultural brewery and distillery in Saint-Blaise-sur-Richelieu. The interactive outdoor trail uses information panels to teach visitors about brewing beer, distillation, barrel aging and sustainable agriculture. Its themes therefore range from processing to agricultural practices. If you are interested in production and related topics, the trail offers a specific focus.

There is also a guided tour of the brewery-distillery. It lasts 45 minutes to one hour and is available by reservation only. This timeframe can help you plan the tour as part of your stay. Check the reservation information before your visit.

History at Place Feller

Place et musée Feller tells the story of Saint-Blaise-sur-Richelieu and French-speaking Protestantism. The museum presents the work of Henriette Feller and Louis Roussy. The two Swiss Protestants are considered the founders of French-speaking Protestantism in Quebec. This brings local history and the history of a religious tradition in Quebec together at one named site.

Place Feller also offers a playful history activity in the style of “Snakes and Ladders.” Those interested in history will find this playful activity alongside the museum’s exhibits. History is therefore reflected both in the museum and in another form at Place Feller.
