Built in 1859, this courthouse is a reminder of the days when L’Isle-Verte was the county town of Témiscouata and seat of the circuit court. Three times a year, a circuit judge would hear civil cases. The building is classified an historic monument (1978) and recognized as a national historic site (1981). In an authentic 19th century courtroom, discover the architecture of the building, the history of L’Isle-Verte, the judicial system of the period and the cases tried here.
