History


In 1950, the Parish of Notre-Dame-des-Prairies was established. The name refers to the prairies or planes of the Saint-Lawrence Lowlands that characterize the landscape. In 1957, the municipality was formed by separating from the Parish Municipality of Saint-Charles-Borromée-du-Village-d'Industrie. In 2005, the municipality changed statutes and became the City of Notre-Dame-des-Prairies.[4]
