About the museum
Spellbinding! Let yourself be mesmerized by Daniel-Johnson dam, the highest multiple-arch-and-buttress dam in the world. Bridging the magnificent Manicouagan valley, its unique design is a true monument to Québec engineering. Whether you stand at the foot of the dam, inside or on the crest—plenty of thrills are guaranteed! Don’t miss it!
New! Manikuakanishtik(u) viewpoint - During your visit, you will find yourself in Nitassinan, the rich ancestral territory of the Innu of Pessamit. Take the time to discover the magnificent Manikuakanishtik(u) lookout, built to honor them and recognize the harm caused by the construction of the dam.
