Square Viger
Square Viger is a transitional area between downtown and Old Montréal that is a perfect place to relax and meet people.
Description
The square’s inspiring and contemporary new layout was designed to evoke the rich past of this iconic site and showcase its public artworks.
Public art on Square Viger
Much care has been taken to enhance and restore pieces that are part of Montreal’s artistic heritage.
For example, you’ll be able to admire the monument to Jean-Olivier Chénier, designed by Alfonso Pelzer, as well as the Mastodo fountain sculpture and pergolas by Québec artist Charles Daudelin, a leading figure in public art in Québec. The artist’s family contributed to the restoration of these works.
A welcoming space where you can meet up and relax
Several new features have been added, including a café area and public washrooms. Since the square opens directly onto its surroundings, it makes the whole area even more inviting.
A lively place where you can enjoy yourself
The new public square, which overlooks Rue Saint-Denis, can now host a variety of seasonal activities such as neighbourhood parties, intimate concerts and outdoor screenings.
