Although at 250 metres many would call it a hill, Mount
Royal dominates the skyline of Montreal. So named in 1535 by Jacques Cartier in honour
of his patron King François I of France, the mountain in turn gave its name to the city.
The mountain actually has three peaks: Westmount, Outremont, and Mount Royal itself. Mount
Royal Park, the jewel of downtown Montreal, was designed by the famous landscape architect
Frederick Law Olmsted, who also designed Central Park in New York. Avenue du Mont-Royal is
so called as it leads up to the foot of the mountain and the border of the park.
