This museum has so much to see. I love the underground that shows us the foundation of the buildings. The history of the city. A must see. More

There is plenty of substance & a great insight into Montreal's history at this museum but it is in the presentation that this museum truly shines. It is incredibly well thought out from the initial multi-media film to the uncovered graves & ruins that you actually walk through.
