Musée de Kent

The Musée de Kent is situated at “la Pointe-à-Jacquot”, this beautiful building of the neo-gothic revival style is still a gathering point for the Acadian community of Bouctouche.

Formerly the Convent of the Immaculate Conception, it played an important role in the Acadian renaissance. The Museum offers an insight into life at a boarding school in the 19^th and 20^th century and gives an overview of the regional way of life. Its Chapel has been recognized as an architectural gem.

Our bilingual guides, dressed in the students’ uniforms of the 1960’s, will provide you with a unique experience.
