The Nature Interpretation Center | Tourism Saint-Pierre and Miquelon

A place of exhibition

Must-see

Inaugurated in May 2017, open year-round, its 200 square meters of permanent exhibition are an invitation to go out into the field and explore, throughout the archipelago, a mostly preserved natural environment. A large building made of natural wood, weathered by the sun, it is located in the center of the village of Miquelon. Thanks to this structure and the activities offered there, Saint-Pierre and Miquelon has reinforced its appeal as a nature destination.

Visit

The interpretation center

Once reserved for the most seasoned of our visitors, the main natural environments of the archipelago are now accessible to all.

You have heard that in Saint-Pierre and Miquelon you can walk through a forest… by walking on it. Do the words “boreal forest” vaguely ring a bell? What is that bird you heard yesterday during your walk in Mirande?

The Interpretation Center will provide you with the answer to all your questions. It is designed for both the local population and for visitors to Saint-Pierre and Miquelon who both need a place to learn about the natural environment. Make no mistake, the MNE is not a showcase. It is a place of passage, popularization and teaching. It invites you to explore in the field. Interactivity is the key word!

It’s up to you to test it!

In front of one of the screens in the room dedicated to forests, Jean-Pierre from Quebec and his friend, also from Quebec, exchange on the species they recognize. Jean-Pierre and his friend will even be able, if they wish, to go on one of the 5 eco-tours organized by the MNE on Miquelon and see these birds in their natural habitat.
