It was destroyed by fire in 1988, apart from the stone walls, but was rebuilt according to the original plans and is now used as a performance hall.
At some point a dam was built across the river to increase the volume of water delivered to the mill.
In 1769 the seigneur built a new mill, and in 1799 this was replaced by the present Moulin du Domaine.
After trying to remedy the problem, he had a second mill, the Moulin du Portage, built on the banks of the Chêne River, starting in 1815.
[1] The Moulin du Portage was operated throughout the 19th century despite persistent problems with the water supply.
[3] After being abandoned the mill was neglected and vandalized until a group of citizens managed to obtain subsidies from the Ministry of Cultural Affairs of Quebec.
[3] The Moulin du Portage was listed as a heritage building (Immeuble patrimonial) on 30 September 1964.
The Société des Amis managed to obtain funding to rebuild it, faithfully following architectural surveys, so it could reopen five years later.
