This large museum on Sherbrooke is a gem! If you are looking for art, history, sculpture, jewelry, etc..you can find it here. Objects dating from the early ages of civilization to the most modern artist of our times, are on display here.
There are several buildings and pavilions, so it really takes hours and hours to visit. The main entrance is on Rue Sherbrooke, in the modern looking building. You can access the other buildings by an underground tunnel.
It is easily accesible by Metro (Peel or Guy-Concordia).
