A.C. Davie Shipyard, National historic shipyard in Desjardins, Canada
The A.C. Davie facility extends along the St. Lawrence River with five preserved buildings documenting North American maritime construction methods and techniques.
Founded in 1829, the shipyard operated continuously until 1989, contributing to naval operations by constructing vessels for both commercial and military purposes.
The shipyard exhibitions present maritime artifacts, photographs, and documents that illustrate Quebec's industrial development and shipbuilding traditions through generations.
The site offers guided tours in English with suggested contributions of 5 dollars, featuring multiple exhibition spaces and access to historical buildings.
The location contains the first towpath constructed in Canada, demonstrating early maritime engineering methods used for moving vessels along the waterway.
