Charlevoix Astrobleme Observatory

Small interpretation centre and observatory explaining the meteorite impact that shaped Charlevoix.

The Charlevoix Astrobleme Observatory explains the giant ancient impact structure beneath the region. That sounds abstract until you start noticing the rounded hills, the river edge, and the way Charlevoix's villages sit inside a landscape made by shock and erosion.

It is a good World66 kind of stop: specific, local, and a little surprising. Summer astronomy sessions and geology activities make it more than a static display when schedules line up.
