L'Épiphanie
L'Épiphanie () is a town in Lanaudière, Quebec, Canada, located on the bank of the L'Achigan river. It has nearly 9,000 inhabitants and was 150 years old in 2004. On May 23, 2018, the town was greatly enlarged when the Parish Municipality of L'Épiphanie was added to it. Since 1732, the place was known as L'Achigan, thus taking the name of the river flowing through its territory. It was not until 1853 that the name L'Épiphanie appeared. This coincided with the moment of the canonical establishment of the parish, which had just separated from L'Assomption. Historians generally agree to see in this name the transposition of a Sulpician custom. They were owners of the Saint-Sulpice seigneury within which a large part of the territory of L'Épiphanie was included. On January 6 of each year, the day of the Epiphany, the Sulpicians came to celebrate a mass and took advantage of it to collect the seigniorial rents which were due to them.
