Shawinigan, Quebec is a city of 50,000 located on the Saint Maurice River about 41 kilometres north of Trois Rivieres via highway 55. Shawinigan was settled in 1851 and incorporated as the village of Shawinigan Falls in 1901. A year later, it was incorporated as a town and in 1958 achieved city status with the 'Falls' dropped from the name at that time.
Once a boom town, based around the hydro-electric and pulp and paper industries, the city is home to La Cite de L'Energie science centre/theme park. Located at the park is a 115 metre or 377 feet high observation tower that dominates the city's skyline.
Shawinigan is the birthplace of NHL hockey playing brothers Marcel, Andre, Claude and Jean Pronovost. It is also the birthplace of Jean Chretien, the 20th Prime Minister of Canada. Their hockey club, the Shawinigan Cataractes, is the only QMJHL franchise to remain in same location from when the league began operation for the 1969-70 season. The team hosted and won the Memorial Cup championship in 2012.
