Johnson Geo Centre
A geoscience museum built into the rock of Signal Hill, where you can see rock layers over 500 million years old, plus a Titanic exhibition.
Most galleries of the Johnson Geo Centre are underground, with bare Precambrian rock forming the walls, and interpretive displays cover the geological history of the Earth and Newfoundland. A Titanic gallery tells the story of the 1912 sinking, which occurred in the waters south of Newfoundland, and its connection to St. John's. Admission is about 14 Canadian dollars. The centre is located halfway up Signal Hill Road and can be visited together with Signal Hill.
