L’Anse-au-Griffon is a village in the municipality of Gaspé in the province of Quebec, Canada. It is located on the north shore of the Forillon Peninsula, and is bordered by the village of Rivière-au-Renard to the west, Cap-des-Rosiers to the east, and the Gulf of Saint Lawrence north and Forillon National Park to the south.

The opening of the valley of L’Anse-au-Griffon to colonization took place in the 1850s. At the time, the deputy for the county, John Le Boutillier, also owner of a fishing establishment in the village of L ‘Anse-au-Griffon, organizes the survey of the county. His son-in-law, Louis Painchaud, Land Agent for the government, finalized the preparation of the cadastre in 1850. The lots were circumscribed in a cantonal division and divided into rectangles cut perpendicular to the Griffon River, in a way a mixture of the French seigneurial system and English townships. This is also a reflection of the population that lives in the area, of half French and half English ancestry. The division of the land was completed in the years 1851 to 1855 by the opening of a road capable of passing horse carts.
