Home > Richmond, Quebec


Richmond, population 3,424 (2001), is a town nestled amidst rolling farmlands on the Saint-François River between Sherbrooke, Quebec and Drummondville, Quebec, in the heart of the Eastern Townships in Quebec, Canada.

Originally settled by colonists from New England and the Richelieu valley at the beginning of the 19th century, Richmond grew in importance in the middle of the 1800s, when it became an important railway centre. Richmond's importance has waned since the 1930s, however.
