| Forges du Saint-Maurice National Historic Site of Canada |
| Located 20 minutes away from downtown Trois-Rivieres, Quebec, the Forges du Saint-Maurice National Historic Site commemorates the founding of the first industrial community in Canada. In addition to covering a considerable area, the National Historic Site features an abundance of archaeological vestiges which stand as a reminder of the birth and development of the first iron industry in Canada. At the Forges, visitors may enjoy an incredibly broad range of activities: visiting the exhibits or attending a sound-and-light show at the Grande Maison; discovering the techniques used to produce pig iron in the blast furnace; taking part in a captivating guided tour of the site, where interpretation panels abound; taking advantage of an enlightening schools program in accordance with the educational reform program; discovering the devil's fountain; taking a walk along the St. Maurice River; or enjoying a picnic in the wide open green area. |
