Montreal's museums

If you’re looking for curiosities, you mustn’t miss this museum on the history of dentistry from the 18th century to the present. The collection of artifacts with odd uses and fascinating descriptions will make you appreciate how far dentistry has come!

The Centre specializes in preserving and promoting the intangible heritage of Quebec and Canadian folk arts and traditions, including those of the First Nations and ethnic communities.

Designated a national archaeological and historic site, Pointe-à-Callière presents centuries of history from the settlements of our Indigenous People to the present day. Located on a spot occupied by humans for more than a thousand years and on the very site where Montréal was founded, the Museum is home to some remarkable architectural ruins that are showcased on site.

Montreal’s portal to its past, the Château Ramezay, was the first building in Québec to be classified an historic monument. Chosen as one of the 1001 Historic Sites You Must See Before You Die, the Château invites you to relive more than 500 years of history through its exhibits, its multimedia circuit (in six languages) and its French colonial garden.

This sumptuous residence, classified rare historic monument in the East of the metropolis, plunges us into the beginning of the 20th century’s atmosphere of prosperity. Its architecture, interior decoration and domestic installations testify to an influential and avant-garde Francophone bourgeoisie whose actions on the development of Montreal were important.

Located in a beautiful mansion on the shores of Lake St. Louis, the Stewart Hall Art Gallery presents eight contemporary arts exhibitions all year round. Its boutique showcases a large variety of handmade objects by Canadians artists.

The mission of the Quebec's Masters and Artisans Museum is to highlight the ingenuity and creativity of the creators and artisans of handmade objects made in Quebec, in its traditional and contemporary form.

Created in 2006, the Montreal Museum of Fly Fishing is a non-profit organization which has given itself the mission to popularize the history of fly fishing in Quebec. Our events in the form of indoor or web exhibitions highlight the different artifacts in our collection as well as the anecdotes related to them. We therefore want to do our part to enrich Quebec's historical heritage and to perpetuate the memory of our passionate men and women of fly fishing.
The Museum presents travelling exhibitions only.
