Centre d'Interprétation de la Côte-de-Beaupré

Housed in a convent built in 1907 and fully renovated in 2002, the Centre d'Interprétation de la Côte-de-Beaupré (CICB) is a gateway to the culture of the region.  The exhibition entitled Regards traces a thematic portrait of Côte-de-Beaupré, past and present; the history of a shore where settled 170 immigrant families.  The Classe d'Antan is a reconstitution of a classroom from the beginning of the 20^th century and reminds visitors of the building’s initial purpose.  Thanks to archeological digs visible at all times, archeology enthusiasts will be thrilled by the historic site that retraces the history of the two convents erected respectively in 1694 and 1830.  Each year, the CICB offers a rich selection of exhibitions to visitors: temporary exhibitions on the region’s founding families, artists’ exhibitions in the Galerie d’art du vieux couvent, lectures, etc.
