    Artist: Denis d'Amour

  • La forge Bergeronnes (La forge de Bergeronnes)
    The exhibition tells the story of Omer Gagnon. Originally a farmer, he became a blacksmith in response to the growing demand for iron products. His art is a direct descendant of the French artisan tradition. Established in the early 20th century, Mr. Gagnon's forge became the hub of economic activity in Les Bergeronnes. The exhibition invites you to discover the heart of the forge, its many tools, and the creations of this indispensable figure.
  • Tours de force (Tours de force)
    The North Shore is one of the richest archaeological regions in Quebec, with over 1,300 inventoried sites. The Centre's 2009 permanent exhibition will introduce you to eight thousand years of human occupation: Palaeo-Eskimos, Inuit, Basques, English and French all came to this region at different times. Their traces reveal an often little-known history.
