Guided tour
Accompanied by an experienced interpreter-guide, let us tell you about the beginnings of Baie-Comeau. 

In 1937, Colonel Robert R. McCormick founded a town around his paper mill, Quebec North Shore Paper, which produced newsprint for the Chicago Tribune, of which he was president. A remarkable, inspiring and visionary man whom you'll meet at the helm of his canoe. Your guided tour will also take in Place La Salle and its historic monuments, the mysterious Parc de le Grotte and the impressive Dom Bellot-style Church of Sainte-Amélie, with its frescoes worthy of the Sistine Chapel.
