Auberge Saint-Gabriel was purchased by the Bolay family in 1987.If Auberge Saint-Gabriel’s walls could talk, they would tell many tales of the events that have marked Quebec’s history. In fact, Truteau Hall housed the old Beauchemin print at the beginning of the 20th century, publishers of the newspaper Le Patriote! Furthermore, a fur trading post once occupied the space where the Velvet nightclub now stands.Today, Auberge Saint-Gabriel is owned by Marc Bolay, Garou, and Guy Laliberté.
