Site historique maritime de la Pointe-au-Père

Location: Rimouski

This museum tells the story of the Empress of Ireland, which claimed 1,000 lives when it sunk in 1914. It was the worst maritime disaster in Canada. Learn about life on board the vessel and experience its final voyage through a 3D presentation. Afterwards, stretch your legs by climbing the 128 steps of Canada's second-tallest lighthouse.
