Sainte-Famille-de-l'Île-d'Orléans (Sainte-Famille prior to September 12, 2017) is a municipality in the L'Île-d'Orléans Regional County Municipality, Quebec, Canada, part of the administrative region of Capitale-Nationale. It is situated along the western shores of Island of Orléans.
Founded in 1661, Sainte-Famille-de-l'Île-d'Orléans is the oldest settlement on l' île d'Orléans and has one of the most important concentrations of houses of the old French regime.
In 1661, l'Île d'Orléans' first parish was formed and it was known until 1679 as Paroisse de l'Île. The parish municipality was first established in 1845 as La Sainte-Famille, abolished in 1847, and reestablished in 1855. The article 'La' disappeared in the 19th century. [1] [4] A post office named Sainte-Famille-d'Orléans was opened in 1852. [5]
On September 12, 2017, the Parish Municipality of Sainte-Famille changed statutes and name to the Municipality of Sainte-Famille-de-l'Île-d'Orléans. [6]
