RCMP Memorial

Reviewed By TravelsWithChihuahua - Moncton, Canada

If you're not familiar with Greater Moncton (Moncton/Dieppe/Riverview), I strongly recommend using the RCMP Memorial as a starting point for your visit. Very easy to locate, and with plenty of street parking, this is a beautiful and well created memorial to our most recent fallen Police Officers. There has been six Police Officers tragically killed in the line of duty in the history of our city, a sad reality, and this monument is specifically for three Police Officers killed during a mass shooting in our city on June 4th., 2014. These Officers were members of Codiac RCMP, while the other fallen Officers were members of The Moncton Police Force (Replaced by the RCMP). From here, you are now on a beautiful riverfront walking trail, part of the TransCanada Trail, and one block away from Moncton's Main Street with it's many restaurants, night clubs, stores, banks, theatre, etc. Every city has its history, good and bad, and from here we learn and grow.

Magnetic Hill Park

Cars appear to go faster up this hill than down it: an optical illusion or one of nature's mysteries?

Free Meeting House

The Free Meeting House, built in 1821 is one of Moncton’s oldest standing public buildings. Its purpose was to serve as a home for all religious denominations until such time as individual groups could raise the money required to build their own churches. In June 1990, the Free Meeting House was designated a National Historic Site. Visits are offered by request at the Admissions desk of Resurgo Place, adjacent to the Free Meeting House during business hours.

Avenir Centre

Reviewed By Railman125 - Moncton, Canada

Visited the Centre for a Wildcats hockey game. Great venue. Lights and sounds are great. I found the food a bit expensive for what you get and getting into the place is not the greatest especially when it is cold or raining.
