Visit this interactive center in the middle of a northern town. It gives families travelling across HWY 11 a place to stop. It’s a very informative center about the history of the area and northern Ontario.

Nice free exhibition on the region’s first nations, gold mining heritage, forest fires and local biodiversity. Native artwork is displayed and for sale with a small but impressive collection of regional minerals.
