NOTE: Visitors aged 18 years and over must present identification (health insurance card, driver's licence or passport) before they can tour the facility. 
 Stop by for a tour of Beauharnois generating station, one of the largest hydroelectric power plants in the world. It's just 40 km southwest of Montreal. 
Equipped with 38 generating units stretching for nearly a kilometre, it's one of Hydro-Québec's most powerful generating stations. You'll be amazed by this monument to human know-how, especially when you consider that the facility is over 75 years old! You'll also be delighted by the award-winning Art Deco architecture. It's no wonder the power plant is one of Québec's outstanding heritage buildings. Finally, the station's rooftop deck offers a superb view of Lake Saint-Louis and Montréal in the distance. It's definitely worth the detour!
