Societe Historique Du Pontiac / Pontiac Historical Society

The main activity of the Pontiac Historical Society is the operation of the Pontiac Museum at 210 Lake Street in Shawville Quebec. The mandate of the museum is to collect and display artifacts for the study and appreciation of the local history of the part of western Quebec known as the Pontiac. Our charity also produces and installs historical interpretive panels at buildings of historical interest and creates and maintains a historical barn quilt trail in the county. Other activities include public talks lectures book launches and presentations on local history.
