Rimouski Tours

Produced by the Société rimouskoise du patrimoine, these six circuits with a total of 46 panels introduce you to Rimouski’s history and built heritage, while explaining the role played by the river, the railroad, religious congregations and other phenomena in the city’s development.

You can explore them year-round, enjoy a guided tour in summer, and learn more about the transformation of the local urban landscape by consulting the complementary content available on the Société rimouskoise du patrimoine web page.
