Musée de Charlevoix

About

The Musée de Charlevoix is a not-to-be-missed cultural attraction within our beautiful region. Through your visit of its four exhibition halls, one being located outdoors, you will delight in the history of Charlevoix and popular art.

The museum’s shop features a vast array of objects, books and handicrafts made by local artists.

You will enjoy a pleasant moment contemplating the Saint-Lawrence River surrounding this outstanding institution…Visiting the rooftop terrace is an absolute must to admire the scenery in all its glory!

Young families are also welcomed. Your children will love our animal sculptures and the large blackboard with chalk awaiting their drawings. Rallies are also offered to everyone’s delight!

In addition to nearby restaurants and inns, a visit to the Musée de Charlevoix is pure bliss!

Activities

    The Cap-à-l’Aigle gardens are now home for a number of fantastical creatures staged throughout the verdant and flowered setting of this botanical treasure trove. The strange beasts and super-sized flowers from the popular art collection are all works made of recycled materials. Visitors, on the look-out for out-of-the-ordinary art installations and drawn towards points of interest along the trail, will be charmed by these creatures that mingle in with the natural surroundings and the hundreds of species of lily on display in the gardens. These strange and intriguing half-hidden beasts and flowers are yours to discover along the entire length of the trail.
