MEASURES TO PROMOTE WELCOME AND CONTACTLESS SERVICE

Maison Louis-Cyr is committed to disseminating information in advance on the Web, in newsletters, on social networks and to install temporary signage in strategic locations. It will use, in particular, the following means:

OFFER ADJUSTMENT MEASURES

  • Promote contactless payment.
  • Put up some outdoor information panels.
  • Apply public health instructions regarding the wearing of personal protective equipment for our employees (masks, visors, etc.).

 

SANITARY MEASURES

  • Manage queues and customer journeys by creating a one-way street in the museum.
  • Add protective measures, including hand washing and distancing devices at points of service.
  • Revise housekeeping standards for infrastructure, increasing the frequency of cleaning and disinfection routines in common areas, washrooms and the most affected surfaces.
  • Add signage throughout the site to remind people of the sanitary measures to be observed.

LIST OF WHAT IS CLOSED OR CHANGED

Not available:

  • The museum floor
  • Praxinoscopes
  • The force machine
  • Guided tours service (possibility of semi-autonomous tours).

Given the situation created by the COVID-19 pandemic, the museum is unfortunately not authorized to offer the guided tour service. Visitors should therefore expect to visit Maison Louis-Cyr independently. Interpretive guides will, however, be present in the museum to answer questions from customers.
