Ancienne-Douane building – a new space specifically for the 100,000 young people and families who visit the Museum!

The only large-scale archaeology museum in Quebec and the rest of Canada, Pointe-à-Callière is now looking to fit out the Ancienne-Douane building with new facilities where these young people can get even more out of this unique experience.

A new workshop-exhibition designed for ages 6 to 12 on the theme of the St. Lawrence Iroquoians, the first inhabitants of the St. Lawrence Valley, will be installed permanently in the vestiges, located in the basement of the museum. Traces of this prehistoric people dating back to 1350 have been found on the future site of Montréal. They were living in the village of Hochelaga when Jacques Cartier visited the island in 1535, but had mysteriously disappeared by the time Champlain arrived in 1603. What had happened? A quest, using a variety of objects, images and illustrations, inspiring immersive environments will introduce the children to the Iroquoians’ lives while appealing to their different senses through games. The Pointe-à-Callière Foundation would like to ask for your financial support so we can together reinvent these spaces, as well as help us continue to offer high-quality educational activities.
