Courcelles
In the village of Courcelles, you will find a log dam, which was built in 1865 on the Rivière aux Bleuets. This small village also has two public squares, one on each side of the river. Stop at the Moulin Bernier, which is an old flour and sawmill dating back to 1888 and that was completely restored in 2003. Each summer, a new exhibition is presented inside, as well as the permanent exhibitions “Meuniers d’antan” and “La Chemise Perfection Inc.”, which will make you discover the history and process of premix as well as the development of the townships. A park was also laid out on the site of the old station, where you will have access to a hanging bridge that will allow you to admire the fall, the dam and the small canyon of the Rivière aux Bleuets. Each year in the retention pond upstream the dam, a fishing day is organised and attracts all the villagers.
