About
The discovery of Lévis and its maritime, rail and commercial history is different from the history of Québec City. Our guide will help you discover lesser-known aspects of the history of Lévis during both the French and English colonies. The social changes of the Canadian period are also visible in Old Levis.

We conduct the same visit to the public market of Cap-Rouge on Saturdays from July 5 to August 31, 2025.
