The colony&#8217;s origins date back to the late 17th century, when Nicholas d&#8217;Ailleboust, Sieur de Coulonge, established one of the first settlements on the Ottawa River, near the mouth of the Coulonge River. This first trading post, aptly named Fort-Coulonge, served as a hub for the flourishing fur trade. Over the years, the fort changed hands, passing under the management of the North West Company in 1760, then becoming the property of the Hudson&#8217;s Bay Company in 1821. Until 1828, it was the main trading post along the Ottawa River, facilitating trade between European settlers and indigenous peoples.<\/p><p>Fort-Coulonge&#8217;s transformation from a trading post to a thriving village began in the mid-19th century. In 1843, George Bryson built the region&#8217;s first sawmill, marking a major shift towards industrialization and economic development. It was also at this time that the region&#8217;s first wooden chapel was built in 1873, to be replaced by a brick church in 1884 following a destructive fire. The arrival of the railroad in 1886 further stimulated growth and connectivity, cementing Fort-Coulonge&#8217;s status as a transportation hub.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9b251d0 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"9b251d0\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c70c97c elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"c70c97c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"395\" src=\"https:\/\/fortcoulonge.qc.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/train-station-1-1024x505.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-172991\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fortcoulonge.qc.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/train-station-1-1024x505.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/fortcoulonge.qc.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/train-station-1-300x148.jpg 300w, https:\/\/fortcoulonge.qc.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/train-station-1-768x379.jpg 768w, https:\/\/fortcoulonge.qc.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/train-station-1.jpg 1100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6861586 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6861586\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>On December 10, 1888, Fort-Coulonge was granted municipal status, with John Bryson as mayor.
