23 Best Things to Do in Montreal
"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. You'll need a good 90 minutes to explore Pointe-à-Callière's permanent "Where Montréal Was Born" exhibition. Up on the roof, the glass-walled L’Arrivage Bistro has a lunch menu and spectacular views of the Old Port." - Todd Plummer
