Kamouraska Historic Sites & Interpretive Centres
• A WorldWeb.com Travel Guide to Historic Sites & Interpretive Centres in Kamouraska, Quebec.
This site was the first settlement along the south St.Lawrence until an earthquake in 1790 forced inhabitants to move to the present Kamouraska town site. There is still a chapel here, as well as information panels that educate visitors on the history of the site. The original settlement also featured a second church and a cemetery.
Formerly home to the local circuit court, this structure now acts as an art, architecture and history interpretation centre. The building was constructed in 1888 in a medieval-style and contains a display of original arts and crafts by local artists. Guided tours area available.
