About us

Since 1947

The Société historique de la Côte-Nord has existed since 1947 to promote the rich historical past of a vast northern region once nicknamed the “Land of Cain”. Through our publications and archival collections, our exhibitions and our museum, we contribute to nurturing the sense of pride that the people of the North Shore feel in living in a thousand-year-old territory that witnessed the birth of the Province of Quebec.
