Wolfe and Montcalm

Hôtel du Parlement de Québec is the location of the Parliament of Quebec which consists of the Lieutenant-Governor and the National Assembly. The building was designed by Eugène-Étienne Taché and was constructed between 1877 and 1886. The front facade is decorated with numerous statues including those of British General James Wolfe and the commander of the French and Canadian troups, Louis-Joseph, Marquis de Montcalm - both of whom were mortally wounded when they fought in the Battle of Quebec (Bataille des Plaines d'Abraham ) in 1759.
