Built in 1936, Fort-Prével aimed its heavy artillery towards the Atlantic and was a military outpost during the Second World War. It is now a tourist attraction. To the south of this village, at Pointe-Saint-Pierre, you will have a wonderful view of the tip of Forillon on one side and Bonaventure Island and the Rocher Percé on the other. Near this tip, a rock resembling the profile of an Indian tells this legend: "White men came from Europe on a great ship, kidnapped a young Indian girl, and took her back to their country far away. Ever since, her lover tirelessly awaits the return of his beloved, with his back to the sea and sorrow in his eyes, his gaze fixed on the cliffs."
