learning
The Archipélitude museum on Île aux Marins occupies the former public school and other historic houses. Its collections present objects connected with earlier ways of living and traditional skills. Preserving them within local buildings helps connect material culture with the spaces in which island communities learned, worked and made their homes.
culture

Look up the tapering sides to the red gallery and its small beacon. The lighthouse marks the entrance to the old harbour at Saint-Pierre. Its compact silhouette has become a familiar symbol of the town, standing apart from the nearby historic cannon battery.
