Château Ramezay - Musée et site historique de Montréal Review

Nice but small and not very suitable for young children.

a very nice visit of a small piece of history of Montreal.

Good place to learn about the history of the city and the region. Looks like a lot is still to under construction though...

Our history ! That of our ancestors! It is a must-see historic site for Montrealers and Quebecers!

To discover part of the history of Montreal, this is to do (which changes the huge and overwhelming buildings of Old Montreal), plus there are very nice people who are the animation.

Historical museum exploring the development of Montreal within the setting of a 17th century former Governors residence. Particular focus on the political and military forces which shaped modern Montreal and Quebec. An interesting exploration of the way indigenous, French, British and North American cultures have fused together and conflicted with each other.

Could be interesting for those interested in Quebec culture and history.

Good guides, and many small objects that retrace Canadian and city history

A beautiful historic and well maintained square that allows us to better understand the past of Montreal and its inhabitants

Interesting for the history of the city but the decor is ordinary.

This important historic place in Montreal has been well preserved. And the garden is beautiful!

"Castle" in the middle of Montreal. Very expensive ticket for what it is. The most beautiful thing is the little garden they have outside, with a vegetable garden and such. Anyway.

Museum retracing the history of the home and of Quebec

A very pretty historic monument showing what New France was and life at that time.
Museum very well maintained and pleasant to explore.
There are a lot of explanations and artefacts to discover and the audio contents help to plunge into this universe.
I recommend visiting this little pearl of history in the heart of old Montreal.

Fun and informative. Beautiful building and original gardens.

This place shows the rich history that Montreal has to offer. It contains loads of history that is actually super interesting and is a great place to hide from the cold.

Great museum with well done exhibits, air conditioning, and fair price.

Nice place in the middle of the City. Lovely garden, must see

great place for canadian historians but if you arent to interested in that kind of thing it's not for you. Super affordable as well

The whole place takes about 45 minutes to 1 hour to go through properly. Each room is very unique and provides a lot of history to learn. There is a creepy ghost feel I have to admit. Price for adults was under 10 bucks. Worth a quick stop.

Lots of information about Montreal and French history. Very immersive; sometimes you feel like having gone back in time! It's a relatively small museum, but not too expensive and definitely worth it!

historical. It is a rare museum with Chinese storytelling commentary. Chinese tourists are worth a visit. Visiting fare: 10 Canadian dollars per person.

The place was nice but I did not enjoy it because of the tour guide. She was a lady with red hair. She explained only and did not allow us to speak. It was always as obsessive as if we were in a forbidden history lesson. We did not see much. She only took us where she wanted to explain.

Really nice place worth the visit for the things exhibited

To do on a guided tour, our guide was a history buff, we learned a lot

Interesting museum, however the exhibit was still under construction when we went and many of the displays were not fully functioning (e.g. the video portion was often not working). The reconstruction of the original gardens is amazing.

Lesser known museum, yet offering a very beautiful exhibition and a magnificent garden inspired by New France.

It's more like a house than a castle. Inside, there is only one room all in wood that makes castle. The place is good for learning the history of Montreal and Quebec. But not for the monument. The gardens stretched over 3 hectares they now only 100m2. In short, Canadians are not as fond of history and their heritage as the French ... For $ 11 the entrance think well before going there.

Incredibly interesting. Well laid out and very informative exhibits. A must visit for every visitor to Montreal!

A beautiful place to know for its importance in the history of Quebec. The staff is very nice and helpful.

interesting place to visit, you learn many things about Montreal,
however considering the size of the Musee, entry price can be lowered. Also, when we enter we were told that garden should be visited as well, but then when we were finishing the tour, we were told that garden is closed for some private event...that is a minus. was it so so exciting? no, it was an OK experience.

Old historic house. A beautiful room with woodwork of a private mansion of Nantes in France that gives a particular attraction.

Interesting bit of history. Staff are nice and knowledgeable. I had to run to an errand and they let me come back later that day for free. I learned a lot and still remember it more than a year later!

Superb museum.
I was treated to the official guided tour with many explanations given by a history enthusiast.

The cocktail dinner experience was excellent, the food very good.

It is a great museum with period dressed re-enacters and animators.

Very useful to understand the birth of this country. A few fun parts that are not devoid of interest. To visit at the start of your stay.

Former house of the governor of Montreal. Your little garden and your house. In one of the best locations in the city.

Interesting, educational and beautiful. The room to honor our fallen soldiers was touching and heartbreaking.

They offer a very lively and interesting guided tour of New France from 1704 to 1760. And the province of Quebec under the British regime from 1760 to ...
The guides are fabulous.

Saw only the garden of the chateau. Nicely arranged plants but not very grand in size.

Solid and rich museum. Interesting original exhibits.

Have a good trip. The most interesting part is the basement or basement that shows where the house service happened, such as the kitchen. I recommend.

Kids loved celebrating their friends birthday there

Nice but small. Collection is not rich, still IT is very nicely presented.

Very nice interactive museum we learn a lot about Quebec!

A quaint little museum with a lot of history. A hands-on museum with lots of interesting exhibits that showed the history of Montreal through the eyes of the various people that resided in this house.

A real gem of a museum. Not to be missed when you visit Montreal. Be sure to take one of the free guided tours(1 1/4hr)

But guide too talkative and slow. Not much to see. Go to the Museum of Fine Arts!

An enchantment!

A favorite for the War Flowers exhibition that was presented, it was very moving. I shed a small tear in front of almost all the modules and find myself in the middle of the 68000 names of the victims of the war ... Just Wahoo! A very busy atmosphere but an important memory duty. It was conducted brilliantly so a big congratulations and thank you for allowing us to see that.

Very good family visit
Audio guides are both accessible and interesting. Various fun activities make it possible to keep the interest of the children awake.
It is a Mecca of Quebec and Canadian history.

Very nice museum to escape the unexpected heat in Canada!! Take the kiddos downstairs for a game and dress up. Gardens are free to walk through.

It is a beautiful place to enjoy the morning, remember wear comfortable clothes, because your walk and down stairs. :)

Nice place. I visited it quickly during a children's party organized on site. The activities were enjoyed by the children. Mostly dress up and write with feathers. The making of the brioche was less popular and it was tough, tasteless when baked. I found the experience too expensive because of it. On the other hand, I really want to go back to see the museum in its entirety.

Historic Monument of Ville Marie / Montreal in Old Montreal!

I was hesitant at first but it was a very interesting museum, I end up staying there for an hour of not more time.

OMG! It is so cute! You are dividing into 19th century with all the details and ambiance of the epoch. Do not run through the museum, take your time to enjoy it.

Very nice historic house. Lots of information via the electronic kiosks and the basement with game play and very nice surprise interaction. The 13 open rooms were filled with history and discovery

To learn about the history of Montreal, it's a must-see museum. In addition, access to the garden is free.

Not a bad museum and it might be of interest to some tourists...I didn't particularly learn much but it wasn't entirely bad either. Would recommend for those who are visiting the Old Port.

You get to see things people used in old times. You also see people dressed similar to old times. You get to write using feathers and a lot more things

House-museum of human size. Sympathetically arranged, the audio documents are well done as are the comments to read in both languages.
We go from room to room while progressing chronologically in the history of Quebec, portraits of characters with names of boulevards, objects of olden days, touching documents. The exhibition (in May 2019) is being redesigned in the lower part of the house, it's frustrating of course.
The garden is very cool

A castle full of surprise and a whole section of Montreal's history that opens up to us
