While taking a surf around Google searched for Montreal history and found an interesting museum complete with garden here in Montreal. Chateau Ramezay is considered to be among one of the oldest buildings in Montreal. The website invites visitors to enter Montreal's history through it's grand door. The museum houses permanent and temporary exhibits. There are two permanent exhibits that feature the histories of Montreal, Quebec and Canada dating back 500 years. And, right now there is a temporary exhibit called Profit and Ambition, which explores the Canadian fur trade from 1779 to 1821. The exhibit is running now until October of this year.
Besides the exhibits the museum houses many different artifacts of all kinds and there is the Governor's Garden. The garden features flowers, herbs and an orchard. It is considered to be one of the finest gardens in Montreal.
