10 Best Museums in Montreal | Condé Nast Traveler

"Pointe-à-Callière, in Old Montreal, is the largest and most frequently visited history museum in Montreal, and the largest archaeology museum in Canada. Even its location is significant: It's built on the site where Montreal was founded in 1642. In addition to the permanent exhibitions, Pointe-à-Callière also presents three to four temporary exhibitions a year, including on topics far from Montreal, like Easter Island and the Royal Queens of Ancient Egypt." - Richard Burnett
