History
The first settler was Joseph Dufour, followed by more families in 1898. In 1915, its post office opened under the name Lac Gorman, after the lake the settlement was located on. In 1919, the local parish was founded, named in honour of its patron, Saint Paul. That same year, the lake and post office were renamed to Lac Saint-Paul.

In 1922, the Municipality of Lac-Saint-Paul was created out of territory ceded from the United Township Municipality of Wurtele, Moreau et Gravel.
