Trace Baie-Comeau's fascinating dual founding — the Anglo paper-mill town of Colonel McCormick and the French-Canadian Vieux-Poste quarter — on the official guided heritage walk, culminating at the stunning Art Deco Sainte-Amélie Church.
What to expect
Departing at 9:30 am or 1:30 pm daily, your guide leads a 2 km route through the historic Marquette and Sainte-Amélie quarters, pausing at architectural gems including the ornate twin-towered Sainte-Amélie Church — whose interior murals and woodwork rival anything in Québec City. The Vieux-Poste waterfront reveals the town's pre-industrial fur-trade origins. The pace is leisurely, with ample time for photography and questions. Groups are deliberately kept small for an intimate, conversational experience.
Good to know
