Lévis and Murray Monuments

Accessible site

Located in Des Braves Park, these monuments honor the memory of the commanders of the French and British troops, François-Gaston, Chevalier de Lévis, and James Murray, as well as their respective allies during the Battle of Sainte-Foy in 1760.

Battle of Sainte-Foy

On April 28, 2010, on the 250th anniversary of the Battle of Sainte-Foy, the National Battlefields Commission unveiled two monuments celebrating the memory of the French and British troop commanders and of their respective allies. A short ceremony was held at Des Braves Park, site of the confrontation.

Michel Binette, the sculptor, created two finely chiselled bronze works complementing each other, which are worthy representations of generals Lévis and Murray. The sculptures are laid on granite pedestals and bear an inscription paying tribute to the generals who led the French and British troops. 

Nearby, an interpretation pannel evokes the Battle of Sainte-Foy, Des Braves Monument, and the park that bears the same name.
