Located in Mansfield-et-Pontefract, the Félix-Gabriel-Marchand Bridge is the longest covered bridge in Quebec. Built in 1898 by Augustus Brown of Beachburg, this historic 153-meter bridge once connected the loggers’ camps to the village of Fort-Coulonge. Built entirely of pine and supported by six wooden posts, it stands as a testament to the importance of the forestry industry in the region’s history. Cross this single-lane bridge and admire its unique architecture, which adds to the charm of the Coulonge River. Day or night, when its lights highlight its structure, let yourself be enchanted by this heritage gem of the Outaouais region.
