The Battle of Chateauguay Memorial was erected by the Government of Canada in 1895. 

On Tuesday, 26 October 1813, between 10:00 A.M. and 3:00 P.M., a force of some 1,000 Canadian regulars and militia under British command occupied defensive positions near and in the present village of Allan's Corners, Quebec. They succeeded in repulsing an attack by an American army of over 4,000 men, thus halting the American force's descent of the Chateauguay River to the St. Lawrence, and thwarting a planned junction with another army descending the St. Lawrence toward Montreal. The engagement has come to be known as the Battle of Chateauguay. The old plaque erected by the Historic Sites and Monuments Board of Canada has been removed and replaced by a new one installed at the Battle of the Chateauguay Interpretation Centre.

This memorial, erected in 1956 to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the 27th company, Canadian pontifical Zouaves, pays tribute to the papacy and to the Zouaves. In 1868, Canadian pontifical Zouaves formed seven detachments with more than 500 young men to protect Pope Pius IX's territory. Many came from the south of Montreal.

À LA GLOIRE DU COLONEL CHARLES-MICHEL DE SALABERRY

[rear/arrière]

FORCE À SUPERBE, MERCI À FOIBLE.



[right side/côté droit]

ÉRIGÉ EN 1964 PAR LA SOCIÉTÉ SAINT-JEAN-BAPTISTE DU DIOCÈSE DE VALLEYFIELD.

[left side/côté gauche]

À LA MÉMOIRE DES PIONNIERS-MILICIENS DE CETTE RÉGION, À L'IMMORTELLE VICTOIRE DE LA RIVIÈRE CHÂTEAUGUAY, 26 OCTOBRE 1813.




[plaque/plaque]

Colonel Charles-Michel d'Irumberry de Salaberry
Né à Beauport le 19 novembre 1778 et décédé à Chambly le 27 février 1829
Militaire de carrière, il fut surtout considéré toute sa vie comme un "Homme d'honneur et de justice".
Il s'illustre tout spécialement lors de la Bataille de Châteauguay à Allan's Corner en 1813 en repoussant les Américains qui tentaient d'envahir Montréal.
Le toponyme Salaberry-de-Valleyfield est un merveilleux compromis cherchant à atténuer la dualité entre francophones et anglophones. En effet, en choisissant "Salaberry", nous rendions hommage à un héros national s'étant illustré chez nous. En ajoutant "Valleyfield" à cette désignation, nous honorions du même coup l'une de nos premières entreprises la "Valleyfield Paper Mill".
Novembre 1996

La réalisation et la relocalisation de cette statue en ces lieux, ont été rendues possibles grâce à la généreuse contribution de la Caisse populaie Ste-Cécile-de-Salaberry, la Société St-Jean-Baptiste du diocèse de Valleyfield et la ville de Salaberry-de-Valleyfield

This memorial, originally erected in 1964 par la Société Saint-Jean-Baptiste of the Valleyfield diocese and relocated in 1996, commemorates the victory of colonel Charles-Michel d'Irumberry de Salaberry at the Battle of Châteauguay in 1813. The Salaberry-de-Valleyfield toponymy is a great compromise to the French-English duality.
