Interpretation

In Quebec, interpretation centres abound and make the way for enriching discoveries. These centres may just as easily feature the rich heritage of a region or a city, as nature in its many forms: marine, freshwater and forest habitats, Quebec’s fauna, salt marshes, etc. Additionally, agritourism and terroir products often take the spotlight; Economuseums® are interpretation sites where young and old alike can take pleasure in discovery. Various talented artisans open up their doors to share their passion for their craft and heritage. Visitors can observe the artisan at work while getting to know the history and techniques of the craft, purchase magnificent products and delights made on site. Interpretation signs located along hiking trails or in the parks are also an excellent means to perfect your knowledge of the place visited.
