La Cité de l'énergie
This museum, the only one of its kind in Canada, stands on a stunning natural site, offering visitors an immersive, entertaining, and highly educational experience. It features a 115-metre observation tower (the second-highest in Québec). With its interactive exhibit and multimedia show Planète Énergie, its exhibit on former prime minister Jean Chrétien entitled “Canada in the World”, its city tours and historic cruises, its night show presented outside among a natural scenery in a rotating amphitheater unique in Quebec, and its visits of hydroelectric plants, the Cité de l'énergie offers a real journey back in time in which the visitor actively participates!
