Very mixed experience. If you go before January be sure to check out the excellent Morisal exhibit. It is outstanding with free tours in English on Wednesday and Saturday. The main collection is a mixed bag with some first rate piece and a good many second tier works. The Canadian wing was a major disappointment. The pieces were mostly mediocre.

A lot of just the kind of art that we love, with paintings and sculptures from all the great artists. Pop Art was a bit lame and too many of the galleries were closed for no particular reason, but still a real wow! Don’t forget your hiking boots as you’ll need them.

Clean and well organized museum. They have a coat counter with an attendant. Has a cafeteria. They accept credit/debit card. Stroller friendly stairs but also has a elevator. This activity is worth a day to spend easily to fully enjoy and engulfed the informations. The main building is closed as of now March 2024 for renovations but the two buildings are opened which all three are just connected by an underground passage.

A beautiful museum great location with easy access. The galleries are very presented and the different theme well define and organized. Take the time to explore (2-3 hours) Easy to walk around the museum cover both side of the street with underground tunnels.

Such a great art museum! During our visit, we saw all four floors of the Pavilion for Peace and the Georgia O’Keefe and Henry Moore exhibit. Everything was arranged really well with legible and interesting signage and descriptions. There were plenty of places to stop and take a seat throughout the Pavilion of Peace, which was much appreciated. The cafe was small but what I had (chicken salad sandwich) was solid for museum food! I am definitely hoping to return before the end of our trip.

Outstanding museum! A wide collection of art well presented. Recommend you plan for several hours to take it all in. Multiple floors spread across several buildings all accessible through connecting walk ways.

Well-curated, easily managed museum with a wide range of art styles and periods. Especially interesting collections of Greek, Roman, Egyptian, modernism and Inuit art. The collection is in four adjacent buildings, definitely a full day if you want the full experience. Very easy to wayfind through the different spaces. Easy to make choices about the various styles if you want to experience just one of the collections or if you want to go to a special exhibit.

The exhibition was of mostly Southern Netherlandish art, somewhat misleadingly described as Flemish art, largely drawn from the Phoenix collection in Antwerp. Among the works that caught my eye, several of many fine paintings, were a Virgin and Child by Jan Gossaert, a triptych by Pieter Coecke van Aelst, a portrait of Prince William II of Orange as a child by Anthony van Dyck, a portrait of two children by Michaelina Wautier, a flower piece by Daniel Seghers and a still life by Clara Peeters. Very much worth seeing.

Impressive collection of various art periods. The exhibition on Pop Art was very interesting with works by Lichtenstein, Warhol and others. I liked the combination of classic and modern buildings as well as the display of sculptures around the buildings on public spaces!

It’s a rainy day in Montreal and I’m on vacation and thought I should do something that was indoors and I love museums. I’m happy I was able to get out of the rain but look at some fabulous art. There’s about 4 floors, so I started from the top and worked my way down. Great place for families with kids. They have an interactive space for both the parents and children. On the 2nd floor there a small cafe with grab and go beverages and snacks. Large bags and backpack will need to go to the coat check, good news it’s free! There were a lot of great art pieces to see here, it’s worth the visit and keeps one out of the rain.
