History
In 1694, Jean-Baptiste Hertel de Rouville received the seigneury of Rouville as a reward for his military exploits. His descendant, Jean-Baptiste-René Hertel de Rouville, inherited the seigneury in 1817. In 1832, he had the Manor House built, a classically inspired building with a two-storey square topped by a triangular pediment.[2]
In 1844, facing financial difficulties, he put the Rouville seigneury, including Mont Saint-Hilaire, up for sale. Upon learning of the sale, Major Thomas Edmund Campbell quickly purchased it and moved his family there.[2] In 1853, Campbell hired the architect Frederick Lawford to transform the manor house in a Tudor-inspired Gothic Revival style. The work, which doubled the manor house's size, was completed in 1860.
The manor house and its stables were transformed into a luxury hotel, in 1986.
In 2022, the hotel was put up for sale and later donated to the City of Mont-Saint-Hilaire.
In 2023, it became the location for the reality TV show The Traitors Canada, a reality competition show for CTV.[1]
