Saint-Armand

Sector Brome-Missisquoi

Saint-Armand came into being in 1999 as a result of the merger of St. Armand and Philipsburg. Located northeast of Lake Champlain bordering Missisquoi Bay, the hamlet of Philipsburg is the oldest populated site in the region (1784). In 1788, George Titemore, from the State of New York, settled in the area. Pigeon Hill was first known as Sagerfield, but was renamed due to the impressive number of pigeons found there. Dutch-American families from Duchess County in New York State populated this area. Officially formed in 1855, attestations date back to 1834 under the name of Saint Armand West. Local residents enjoy their charming surroundings, with buildings from the 19th century. In the public square, a former railway station was converted and renovated. The Edoin covered bridge (1845) is another point of interest.
