Musée de la nature

Museums & Interpretation centers

This museum is characterized by the love of nature and artistic feel. Superb mushrooms, sculptures, lovely tree burrs, and witches’ brooms stimulate your imagination. Butterflies, minerals, and seashells, all make up interesting collections. The black bear and coyote are peaceful bystanders as you touch two large sharks that were pulled out of the frigid waters at Sainte-Rose-du-Nord by ice-fishing enthusiasts. Guided tours (bilingual), interpretative signs (French).
