Musée de la Civilisation (Museum of Civilisation)
One of the city’s most entertaining museums, the Museum of Civilisation is easy to spot with its dramatic glass and limestone façade at the foot of the cliff. It hosts temporary exhibits alongside its permanent collections. The ‘People of Québec… then and Now’ gives a historical overview of political history and events that shaped Québec into a unique society. Another permanent exhibition, ‘This Is Our Story: First Nations and Inuit in the 21st Century’, showcases 11 aboriginal nations using artefacts, works by indigenous artists and videotaped oral histories.
