Saint-Adelme () is a parish municipality in the Canadian province of Quebec, located in La Matanie Regional County Municipality in the Bas-Saint-Laurent region.
==History== In 1864, the area was surveyed and the geographic township of Saint-Denis was created. The Mission of Saint-Denis was founded in 1916, but real growth came in the 1920s, during the period of colonization of the Chic-Chocs plateau. For unknown reasons, the place, that was originally known as Saint-Denis, came to be called Saint-Adelme.
