Marvelous scenic view!

On top of the tower, you will be able to see the beauties of the St-Maurice river sceneries and the quality of life in Shawinigan. Back on the ground floor, you will be invited to enter the hydrogen exhibition hall, to discover the new technologies of the energy of future.

Standing tall and proud at more than 115 metres (385 feet) high, the tower at la Cité de l'énergie can lay claim to being Quebec's second highest observation tower.

Capable of powerfully suggesting the might of electrical energy, this pylon has come, so to speak, to symbolize la Cité de l'énergie trademark.
