The oldest private history museum in Quebec that presents historical exhibits, notably on Hochelaga.

Château Ramezay has been a historic building in the heart of Old Montreal since 1705, and its museum is a must-see! Thanks to its rich collections, its exhibits will help you explore and better understand the history of Montreal and Quebec, starting with that of the Aboriginal peoples before the arrival of Europeans. What's more, in its vaults, you can take a seat in its reconstructed interiors to transport you back to New France. The Governor's Garden, a unique example of an 18th-century garden, is accessible free of charge.

We were visiting from out of town and love to see historical places like this preserved and promoted to help not only document the past in a tangible way but also provide opportunities to understand our present times - how we got where we are today. This building saw many changes over its existence. We really appreciated the amount of time spent creating imaginative stories that were available through headsets in each room to help understand the people and events. The downstairs area looked recently renovated and had useful teaching aids for young people. There was a small collection of paintings of Quebec City in two of the rooms that was interesting. We enjoyed the gardens in the back though there had already been prepared for winter - I’m sure they’re much nicer in the summertime. Enjoy your visit.
