To discover, see and do...

The Museum is dedicated to a world-famous salmon river and introduces visitors to some of the celebrated figures who have fished it, and to the residents of Cascapédia-St.Jules. The community is a true Gaspé microcosm, made up of the descendants of Micmacs, Acadians, Loyalists, Scots and Irish. The Museum, in the heart of the village, features a collection that tells the fascinating story of this riverside community and its attachment to its rich natural heritage. You can look forward to a warm welcome from our guides and a delightful tour with plenty of anecdotes, rumours and legends. Lots of enjoyment in store!
