  • The Morrin Centre is located on the former site of the Redoute Royale, a 1712 defensive structure that was later used as a prison. By the late 18th century, this building had fallen into disrepair. The members of Quebec’s grand jury called for it to be demolished and replaced with a new prison on the site.<br />
he building was transformed by architect Joseph-Ferdinand Peachy to house a college and library.<br />
Morrin College, the first English-language institute of higher education in Quebec City, existed between the years 1862 and 1902. It was founded at the initiative of Dr. Joseph Morrin, former city mayor and prominent doctor. The College initially occupied rooms rented from the Masonic Temple before moving into the remodelled gaol building.<br />
