Geography


The main population centre of Mont-Saint-Michel is located 35 kilometres (22 mi) north of Mont-Laurier on the western banks of the Lièvre River. Its territory is characterized by a vast swamp and natural bog. Lake Gravel is one notable lake with vacation cottages surrounding it.[4]


History


The place was originally called Saint-Michel-des-Cèdres, but it was renamed to avoid confusion with the similarly named Saint-Michel-des-Saints. In 1912, its post office opened, and in 1915, a parish was set up as a mission under the name Saint-Michel-Archange.[1]

On September 11, 1928, the Municipality of Mont-Saint-Michel was created out of territory ceded from the United Township Municipality of Wurtele, Moreau et Gravel and Township of Décarie.[5]
