Rimouski's Maritime and Historic Essentials

This collection highlights Rimouski’s maritime and architectural heritage, centered on the Pointe-au-Père historic site. It features the 1909 lighthouse, one of Canada’s tallest reinforced concrete towers, and the HMCS Onondaga, an Oberon-class submarine open for public tours. The list also includes the museum dedicated to the 1914 Empress of Ireland shipwreck. In the city center, the regional museum occupies an 1824 stone church, while Maison Lamontagne preserves rare 18th-century half-timbered architecture from the New France period.
