(Translated) Very nice "little museum" which traces the history of the city of Montreal. Located opposite the town hall, the castle also has a garden at the rear of the building. The visit is quick but very interesting and informative. The children who accompanied us also greatly appreciated. In short, I highly recommend! (Original) Très beau « petit musée » qui retrace l’histoire de la ville de Montréal. Situé en face de l’hôtel de ville, le château dispose également d’un jardin situé à l’arrière de la bâtisse.

Laure MESTAS

(Translated) For Small & Big is one of the museums to see when arriving in Montreal! With the life and events experienced by the various occupants of this residence as a guide, educational and simple videos tell the story of Montreal. Do not miss the basement with disguises available and pieces reconstructed with the furniture where it is possible to sit in the scenery to relive periods of history. (Original) Pour Petits & Grands c'est un des Musées à voir en arrivant à Montréal ! Avec pour fil conducteur la vie et les évènements vécus par les différents occupants de cette demeure, des vidéos pédagogiques et simples racontent l'histoire de Montréal.

Elodie Castro

(Translated) An enchantment! I was really pleased to visit Château Ramezay, which does not look good from the outside. It is still part of the list of 1001 sites to visit in the world! It looks small but I took 2:30 to go around because there is a lot to see, very interesting videos and many fun games for adults and children. The tour is very well done and takes us in the history of this monument so important to the history of Canada, Montreal and Quebec. 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. (Original) Un enchantement! J'ai été vraiment ravie de visiter le Château Ramezay qui ne paie pas de mine depuis l'extérieur. Il fait tout de même parti de la liste des 1001 sites à visiter dans le monde ! Il parait petit mais j'ai mis 2h30 à faire le tour car il y a beaucoup de chose à voir, des vidéos très intéressantes et de nombreux jeux ludiques pour les grands et les petits. Le parcours de visite est très bien fait et nous mène dans l'histoire de ce monument si important pour l'histoire du Canada, de Montréal et de Québec. Un coup de coeur pour l'exposition War Flowers qui était présentée, c'était très émouvant. J'ai versé une petite larme devant presque tous les modules et se retrouver au milieu des 68000 noms des victimes de la guerre... Juste Wahou! Une ambiance très prenante mais un devoir de mémoire important. Il a été mené avec brio alors un grand bravo et merci de nous permettre de voir ça.

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.

(Translated) To do when you visit Old Montreal. Guided tour ultra interesting because made by an enthusiast to the extent of impressive knowledge so that we can lose the thread. Many dates, events that can quickly wear out the less history buffs. Nice place. (Original) A faire quand on visite le vieux Montréal. Visite guidée ultra intéressante car faite par un passionné à l'étendue des connaissances impressionnante si bien que l'on peut en perdre le fil. Beaucoup de dates, d'événements qui risquent rapidement de lasser les moins férus d'histoire. Bel endroit.

Head in the clouds

(Translated) The visit was very disappointing. I have been to Chateau Ramzay several times. I loved it every time. Except this time ... A lot of items have been removed. There was almost nothing to see. The entire kitchen area is almost empty apart from a folding table and a few artifacts. There are interactive stations in every room that are absolutely unnecessary for 11-year-olds who really don't have the patience to listen to all this talk. Children need to SEE and that we answer the questions they have but making them listen to stories for hours does not captivate them: Mum we go to the museum to see things, there is nothing here, we can go?" The museum exhibits various objects that are not normally exhibited. They do rotations. These are to be forgotten in my opinion. (Original) La visite à été très décevante. Je suis allée plusieurs fois au Château Ramzay. J'ai adoré à chaque fois. Sauf cette fois... Beaucoup d'items ont été enlevés. Il n'y avait presque rien à voir. Toute la partie cuisine est presque vide mise à part une table pliante et quelques artefacts. Il y a des postes interactifs dans chaque pièce absolument inutiles pour des enfants de 11 ans qui n'ont vraiment pas la patience d'écouter tous ces discours. Les enfants ont besoin de VOIR et que l'on réponde aux questions qu'ils ont mais leur faire écouter des histoires pendant des heures ne les captivent pas: Maman on va au musée pour voir des choses, ici y'a rien, on peut partir?" Le musée expose différents objets qui ne sont pas exposés normalement. Ils font des rotations. Celles-ci est à oublier à mon avis.

One of the oldest residences in Montreal, you'll get a very good idea of the early days of Montreal. Be sure to check out the charming historic garden behind.

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

Cyndy Yang

Great place that showed the entire Montreal or QCs evolvement in history. An interactive and fun way to learn. Only one star deducted for not taking advantage of using the upper floors to showcase all the owners furniture, lifestyle and all other display.

(Translated) Mention special interactive terminals, they give much life to this small museum, and can appreciate the place at its fair value. The narration is really nice. Otherwise, in the WTF, we discover that we used dog wheels to turn the spindles ???? (Original) Mention spéciales aux bornes interactives, elles donnent beaucoup de vie à ce petit musée, et permettent d'apprécier le lieu à sa juste valeur. La narration est vraiment sympathique. Sinon, dans le WTF, on découvre qu'on utilisais des roues à chien pour faire tourner les tourne-broches ????

Regis Gonzalez del Mauro

(Translated) Good place to be visited, interior attendants characterized. Admission is not free, but the place is very beautiful. Ask for lack of parking or transfer to a parking spot. In the backyard there is a garden, as it has carrots and flowers. People leave the Château and don't even look at the Orta in the back, which is free to enter and has a fountain with fresh and potable water. Like to encourage evaluation. (Original) Bom lugar para ser visitado, atendentes no interior caracterizados. A entrada não é gratuita, mas o local é muito bonito. Peca pela falta de estacionamento ou translado para algum ponto de estacionamento. Nós fundos existe uma orta jardim, pois tem de cenouras a flores. As pessoas saem do Château e nem olham a Orta nos fundos, que a entrada é gratuita e possui uma fonte com água fresca e potável. De um like para incentivar a avaliação.

Kristof Maret

(Translated) 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 (Original) Maison-musée de taille humaine. Sympathiquement agencé, les documents audios sont biens faits tout comme le sont les commentaires à lire dans les deux langues. On passe de pièce en pièce tout en progressant de façon chronologique dans l’histoire du Québec , portraits de personnages aux noms de boulevards , objets de jadis, documents touchants . L’exposition ( en mai 2019) est en cours de refonte dans la partie basse de la maison , c’est frustrant bien sûr. Le jardin est bien cool

Lynne Darroch

Museum lacks a clear purpose. It's not true to a period, it does have fragments of greater Quebec and regional history, and some social history, but it feels a bit disjointed overall.

Max Dagbert

(Translated) Magnificent castle (Original) Magnifique château

Ollie Bridle

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.

Joaquin Loaiza

(Translated) Very good museum of Canadian history. Much to see at a very good price. The audios in the rooms are a bit long and boring. In my concept it is better to do the tour just by seeing and reading. (Original) Muy buen museo de la historia de Canadá. Mucho para ver a muy buen precio. Los audios de las salas un poco largos y aburridos. En mi concepto es mejor hacer el recorrido solo viendo y leyendo.

(Translated) 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. (Original) Belle place. Je l'ai visitée rapidement durant une fête d'enfants organisée sur place. Les activités ont été appréciées des enfants. Surtout se déguiser et écrire avec des plumes. La fabrication de la brioche a été moins appréciée et elle était dure, manque de goût une fois cuite. J'ai trouvé l'expérience trop chère à cause de ça. Par contre j'ai bien envie d'y retourner pour voir le musée dans son entier.

Good place to learn local Montreal history. Entrance fee of $11 Canadian per adult, for some ok, others may think expensive. Lack of parking, if want nearby, forced to use street meters. Without handicap ramp or elevator. Has steps to the main entrance and narrow stair case to the basement portion of the exhibit.

Oscar Villar

Absolutely fantastic!

jacques brisebois

(Translated) It may be one of the first historic site but the visit price is high 11.00 per person only the salon is facin. The rest are just photos and recorded voice.

The museum itself is good for visiting and for holding children's parties. (Original) Сегодня мы посетили музей группой из 11 человек.

Michael La Posta

Very nice museum, right in Old Montreal, steps from the Old Port. The main floor has a lot of artifacts from the when Mr. Ramezay would have been alive, including some really old legal tender from before the Bank of Canada issued legal tender. For me though, the real beauty was in a few of the first rooms you enter. The detailed wood panelling on the walls were hand carved! I'm a bit confused about their origins though as they were brought into Château Ramezay at a later date, so possibly not original. In any case, very beautiful rooms. On the basement level the walls and ceilings had a very different look and feel, and almost seemed more like what I'd expect from that era. The basement is also staged like what it would have been like at that time, so you can imagine yourself there at that time, and what it might have been like. We went during the pandemic, on a Sunday morning, and we had the place to ourselves as well, so that was wonderful. If you're going to visit, I'd highly suggest a Sunday morning if you want the place to yourself... Well, at least during the pandemic where foot traffic is likely to be less. We visited a bit early in the year, so the gardens behind the château aren't blooming yet, however the gardens are free to visit any time for anyone, no tickets required, so we'll go back in a month or so to check them out. All in all, nice château and museum, and the tickets are cheap, so I'd say worth the visit!

Mark David Webster

It is in the heart of Montreal. Not a destination, but more of a stopoff or respite from 21st century living. The gardens in the summer are beautiful. A reminder of a self-sustaining civilization from centuries ago.

The garden was closed during my visit. The museum os not bad at all, but there is something missing to make the visit more interesting. The basement was very interesting, a reconstruction of how it would be during the time the house was used in the past.

Zane Manley

Really interesting little museum and there is a lot to see and read about. Mostly information about the history of Montreal, but has some information about the province and country as a whole. There's a part of the museum which has temporary exhibits, it was about World War II when I was there. Inexpensive, $8 per person and if you read everything it takes about an hour to go through.

Informative museum with different rooms/exhibits. A UNESCO 1001 Historic Site "Must See Before You Die". Out of 1001 historic sites, only 14 Canadian sites were selected (2010), so that's pretty special. The museum has preserved the home and grounds to allow visitors a glimpse into what life was like when it was occupied in the 1700s. There are unique aretfacts, a panelled room with paintings and lavish decor, a recreation of sleeping and kitchen chambers giving insight into daily life, and the expansive and beautiful garden. A historic site worthy of a visit. #mustsee #thingstodoinmontreal #museums

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.

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.

Stephanie

The staff were all dressed the part and were helpful in both French and English. A great spot to check out for a short bit of history. The garden out back is beautiful.

Jacinthe Lachance

(Translated) This museum is very interesting both for those who do not know the history of Montreal as for those who do. Being passionate about history and knowing it rather well, this museum gave me to see objects, paintings, maps that I had never seen before concerning the history of this city. It allowed me to consolidate achievements and also to learn some interesting facts in the process. The rooms follow one another in a linear and chronological fashion in the history of Montreal, passing as suggested by the title of the exhibition from Hochelaga, to Ville-Marie, from Ville-Marie to Montreal, and from old Montreal to from yesterday. It is therefore a beautiful journey through approximately 500 years of history which starts from Amerindian prehistory. It is a very interesting museum for the whole family. Not having done the guided tour, I cannot comment on it. In the vault of the castle, an exhibition entitled La vie de Château: Grandeurs et miseries en Nouvelle-France allows you to imagine what daily life in Montreal must have looked like in the 18th century under the French regime. It is also a place that can be very enjoyable for children because there are interactive games and associations. (Original) Ce musée est fort intéressant à la fois pour ceux qui ne connaissent pas l'histoire de Montréal comme pour ceux qui s'y connaissent. Étant passionné d'histoire et connaissant plutôt bien celle-ci, ce musée m'a donné à voir des objets, des tableaux, des cartes que je n'avais jamais vu avant concernant l'histoire de cette ville. Il m'a permis de consolider des acquis et aussi d'apprendre quelques faits intéressants au passage. Les salles se succèdent de façon linéaire et chronologique à l'histoire de Montréal, passant comme le suggère le titre de l'exposition d'Hochelaga, à Ville-Marie, de Ville-Marie à Montréal, et de Montréal d'antan à celui d'hier. C'est donc un beau parcours au travers environ 500 ans d'histoire qui part de la préhistoire amérindienne. C'est un musée très intéressant pour toute la famille. N'ayant pas fait la visite guidée, je ne peux pas la commenter. Dans la voûte du château, une exposition intitulée La vie de Château: Grandeurs et misères en Nouvelle-France permet d'imaginer un peu ce à quoi devait ressembler la vie quotidienne à Montréal au 18e siècle sous le régime français. C'est aussi un endroit qui peut être très agréable pour les enfants car il y a des jeux interactifs et d'associations.

Definitely one of the must-see places in Old Montreal. Château Ramezay has one of the most whimsical gardens in the city. Make sure to walk around the grounds on both sites of this historical site. Don't miss the back garden. If you're visiting in winter, you will miss most of the magic since the garden will be covered with snow.

(Translated) 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. (Original) Ça ressemble plus à une demeure qu'à un château. A l'intérieur, il n'y a qu'une salle tout en bois qui fait château. Le lieu est bien pour apprendre l'histoire de Montréal et du Québec. Mais pas pour le monument. Les jardins s'étendaient sur 3 hectares ils ne font maintenant plus que 100m2. Bref, les canadiens ne sont pas aussi friands d'histoire et de leur patrimoine que les français... Pour 11$ l'entrée réfléchissez bien avant d'y aller.

A very good museum about the early life of the Upper Class in New France, housed out of Chateau Ramezay, the original Governor's House in Montreal. Here you'll learn about the lifestyle of those living in New France, and take in a number of artifacts from the era, and up to the present day, showing how Montreal changed over time. On the second floor was a bread-making workshop, where visitors can try their hand at making bread in the traditional manner of the settlers, and even taste it after it is finished baking. Kids will have fun with this activity, and a number of other areas feature kid-friendly content. Definitely worth a visit!

The chateau itself was a bit of a disappointment. The exhibits are okay. Also as you approach the chateau there is a small garden area with plack identifying it as governor's garden. When we left we noticed a larger fenced garden. It would have been nice for staff to let us know how to access the gardens as there was no indication or information on "map".

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.

The ground floor is organized chronologically, outlining the history of Canada with a backbone provided by events in the building itself. It's a sweeping picture, supported by many artifacts, but for me it was lacking enough detail to connect the events into a story. The basement concentrates on life in the time of gouverneur Ramezay, and I found it much more lively and informative... The displays have little audio presentations available... But also a "more information" button that can keep you reading for hours!

Lots of history.

Diane Proulx

(Translated) According to unesco, Château Ramezay is one of the 1000 places on the planet to visit. This museum contains objects that cannot be found elsewhere. Like for example a flag of the patriots with a fish on it, or the very first car of Quebec. (Original) Selon l'unesco, le château Ramezay fait parti des 1000 endroit de la planète à visiter. Ce musée contient des objets qu'on ne retrouvent pas ailleurs. Comme par exemple un drapeau des patriotes avec un poisson dessus, ou la toute première voiture du Québec.

Good little museum of Quebec history

Bernard Tulinski

(Translated) At the entrance of the old city of Montreal opposite the town hall is the Château Ramezay, seat for years of the British governor. Today museum that tells the life of French settlers and Indians at the time of the colonization of Canada. Life scenes of French settlers and soldiers with their Indian ally are on display. The provision of camps, canoes and utensils used by these same indigenous populations. The interior decoration and furniture gives a view of the life of the well-off people of the time. (Original) A l'entrée de la vieille ville de Montréal en face l'hôtel de ville se situ le Château Ramezay, siège pendant des années du gouverneur britannique. Aujourd'hui musé qui raconte la vie des colons français et des indiens au temps de la colonisation du Canada. Sont exposés des scènes de vie des colons et des militaires français avec leur allié indien. La disposition des campements, des pirogues et des ustensiles utilisés par ces mêmes populations autochtones. La décoration et le mobilier intérieur donne une vue de la vie des gens aisés de l'époque.

Interesting museum but would have like more information on the building and the rooms should be set up as their original use. Listening stations were not useful or informative. Nice garden in the back.

(Translated) I visit it every year, the temporary exhibition this year included paintings representing Montreal at different times. These paintings did not disappoint me. (Original) Je le visite à chaque année, l'exposition temporaire, cette année comportait des tableaux représentant Montréal à différentes époques. Ces tableaux ne m'ont déçus.

Ganonymous Last

It's nice, lots of history of the home and its connection to Montreal history. I went here out of a recommendation, nice place to see if you have time, not the top of the city's sights in my opinion. If you know Montreal history from else where, and not particularly interested in this historic site in particular, then I'd recommend to skip. If you are not visiting any historical sites or places that have Montreal history and Canadian history, then this will fill you in.

Gisele Chauvet

(Translated) A nice little visit to a historic home in old Montreal. It is quiet, at its own pace and my faith we learn a lot of things. A big plus for the large room with wooden moldings. Gorgeous To do without hesitation (Original) Petite visite bien sympa dans une demeure historique du vieux Montréal. Ca se fait tranquille, a son rythme et ma foi on apprend pas mal de choses. Un grand plus pour la grande salle avec des moulures en bois. Splendide A faire sans hesitation

(Translated) This construction dating back more than three centuries has not suffered the passage of time since it is so well preserved. The building that served as a residence, hospital or meeting place for various associations is now a museum that must be put on your visit list in Montreal. (Original) Cette construction datant de plus de trois siècles n'a pas subi le passage du temps puisqu'elle est si bien conservée.

(Translated) Very disappointing! It is dark and, frankly, for the price we charge, we could give us access to the whole "castle". There are, however, floors ... Again: very disappointing. A tourist trap. Wait for Museum Day to go there. It will be free, so you will not feel like you've been robbed $ 15.00 ???? (Original) Très décevant! Il fait sombre et, franchement, pour le prix qu'on nous charge, on pourrait nous donner accès à tout le "château". Il y a, quand-même, des étages... Encore une fois : très décevant. Un piège à touriste. Attendez la Journée des Musées pour y aller. Ce sera gratuit, ainsi, vous n'aurez pas l'impression de vous être fait voler $15.00 ????

(Translated) This "castle" was the home of the French governor of Montreal of the same name. There is finally a lot to see and discover about the history of Montreal. This small museum is certainly worth the detour. (Original) Ce " château" était la demeure du gouverneur Français de Montréal du même nom.

(Translated) A beautiful jewel of a museum! We learn about the history of the castle but also of Montreal and Lower Canada through the ages. We really liked the video clips and the information sheets on various subjects of the everyday life of the citizens of the time. We can probably do the tour in 20 minutes but we stayed there for 2 hours to listen to the information capsules and read the descriptive texts. A very nice visit. I highly recommend it! (Original) Un beau bijou de musée! On y apprend sur l'histoire du château mais aussi de Montréal et du Bas-Canada à travers les époques. Nous avons bien aimé les capsules vidéo et les fiches d'information sur des sujets variés de la vie de tous les jours des citoyens du temps. On peu probablement y faire le tour en 20 minutes mais nous y sommes resté 2h pour écouter les capsules d'information et lire les textes descriptifs. Une très belle visite. Je le recommande fortement!

Sabrina GARCIA

(Translated) An interesting visit. Through the building, the history of Quebec and Montreal is retraced. The places, the decoration, the unusual objects and the works that dot the tour teach us a lot. In the middle of summer, however, it was hot. A children's circuit would have been appreciated to allow the youngest to benefit from these lessons. (Original) Une visite intéressante. A travers la bâtisse, est retracée l’histoire du Québec et de Montréal. Les lieux, la décoration, les objets insolites et les œuvres qui parsèment le parcours de visite nous apprennent beaucoup.

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)

G Aquino

Definitely swing by if you have two hours to spare and are interested in the early and post-colonial history of Montreal. The artifacts and exhibits take you back to the city's founding and highlight the most important events in its history. The building itself is historic, starting out as the home of a former governor (after which the museum is named) and later converted to a wartime headquarters and then a university facility. For a building that is more than 300 years old, it looks remarkably intact and well maintained. Before leaving, be sure to check out the beautiful garden at the back of the museum. The museum charges an admission fee ($11 when we visited). There are restrooms and a small gift shop on site.

Nice museum, really information heavy! Nice little gift shop, really good range of souvenirs. It's not a castle though, it's a slightly larger than average house.

Kevin L

A wonderful preserved site with great paintings.

Angeline G.

The museum itself is the preserved home of a known Canadian figure, Ramezay. The layout is circuit like in structure, that is, the tour begins and finishes at the same location. As you enter and exit rooms you follow a circular pattern. The museum has been refurbished many times so all of the original artifacts and architecture are gone. In its place are diaromas, paintings, and furniture acquired centuries later (think 1900's). The tour can be co plates in 20 minutes in your own, with the tour guide an hour. The place was not what we expected. Most rude moment occurred when someone in my travel group was accused by an employee of stealing candy from the gift shop even though they had literally just purchased it and were in the middle of eating it. The cashier had to tell him they had just purchased it. He was not apologetic enough in our opinion. Totally set a ride tone to the trip.

Marie Anne

(Translated) Very nice place to go to discover the history and the origins. Warm welcome. I really advise. (Original) Très bel endroit pour aller à la découverte de l'histoire et les origines. Accueil chaleureux. Je conseille vraiment.

Kirill Zolotaresvskiy

It's a great quick museum that only takes about an hour if you stop to listen to some stories. Each story is only a few minutes long. They're both informative and fun. If you're just walking through it'll take less time, but I highly recommend stopping and listening to the stories.

Valentin Hautot

(Translated) 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. (Original) Très bonne visite en famille Les audio-guides sont à la fois accessibles et intéressants.

Donald Gibbs

Great opportunity to look back at the history of Montreal. Need to update some of the information displays with larger text as I struggled to read the very fascinating information.

Ryan Saturley

A really nice exhibit inside a history-filled house. The guided tour was really informative... But doesn't cover the entire history or every room. They allow you to circle back after your tour to examine what was passed or items not seen while on tour. Staff was really friendly. Recommended for you history buffs, but others may enjoy this as well.

Michele Quaegebeur

Fantastic

David Bruce Scott

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