Neuville (French pronunciation: [nøvil]) is a village on the north shore of the Saint Lawrence River, just west of Quebec City, part of the Portneuf Regional County Municipality, Quebec, Canada. Founded in 1684, it remains picturesque.
The 19th-century artist, Antoine Plamondon, (c. 1804–1895) had moved here by 1850 with his mother, brother, and sister. He lived the rest of his life here, more than 40 years.
Neuville has an excellent marina for pleasure sailboats and yachts.
