Saint-Paul-de-l'Île-aux-Noix (pronounced as /fr/) is a municipality in southern Quebec, Canada located in the administrative area of the Montérégie. The population as of the Canada 2021 Census was 2,141.
The name of this municipality was chosen to pay tribute to Monsignor Paul Bruchési, who had just been consecrated Archbishop of the Diocese of Montreal in 1897. The name Île-aux-Noix has been well established for nearly two centuries. It refers to both a military establishment dating back to 1759 and a stretch of land opposite the municipality, and highlights the large number of walnut trees that once covered the island.
