The Jesuit House of Sillery is a French Colonial farmhouse constructed in 1702 in the Sillery neighborhood of Quebec City, built upon the site of the former Saint-Joseph Mission. Executed in sandstone and wood and informed by Palladian architectural principles, the structure exemplifies early colonial domestic building in New France. Now operating as a historic house museum, it has been classified as a Quebec heritage immovable, preserving an important record of Jesuit settlement and agricultural life in the region during the early eighteenth century.
