At the Cité de l'énergie Science Center, take a panoramic elevator to the top of an observation tower built from a former Hydro-Québec transmission tower. At 115 metres, it is the second highest observation tower in Quebec. An evocative symbol of electrical energy, the tower is the emblem of the Cité de l'énergie. You'll be able to appreciate the beauty of the Mauricie landscape and the quality of Shawinigan's urban environment. On this tour, you'll discover the history of Shawinigan's urban and industrial development, as well as the city's heritage.
