A place steeped in mystery and secrets
Abandoned following a cyclone in 1766, the geographical location, importance and activities of Château Dubuc make it a residence with a dark past... Beneath its appearance as a large 18th-century sugar dwelling, there are suspicions of smuggling, merchandise and slave trafficking.
