The Montreal Museum of Fine Arts
(Musée des beaux-arts de Montréal)

What a fantastic museum experience! They offered free tickets for the holidays, which was such a generous gesture. The art collections were incredible, with a mix of classic and modern pieces that cater to all tastes. It was a bit crowded, as expected with the free entry, but everyone was very respectful, and the atmosphere remained calm and enjoyable. The staff were also friendly and helpful, making the visit even better. If you’re looking for something inspiring and fun to do this holiday season, I highly recommend checking it out!

This museum features a lot of works by local Canadian artists, making it a great place to explore Canadian art. It’s also one of Montreal’s iconic buildings. The architecture and gallery layouts are amazing—the building itself feels like a piece of art in the city. The exhibition spaces are huge and spread out across different sections, each with its own style but all beautifully connected. The design is brilliant! 👍 I’d recommend setting aside half a day to visit.

It was good to be here on a Wednesday, except I did the wrong thing by going there at 4 p.m, since they start closing off the permanent artwork buildings for Culture Wednesdays. It's best to choose any other day if you are paying full price, else the temporary exhibitions are open after 5 pm at a discounted price. They also have a nice gift shop, I almost picked up a bunch of things but I'm sure I would not have been able to bring it back to Toronto.

Amazing place to visit if you love art, architecture or are in need of an activity to do. If you’re visiting for the general museum it’s free which is wonderful and it’s not too expensive to see the exhibits once they come in. I would suggest not coming by car but instead taking the metro or bus. Most people don’t know that many of napoleons personal items are in this museum, so go see that if you’re a history buff!

The best museum of Montreal and if you’re interested in arts, then it’s the must go to place. It has a good collection of arts (paintings,installations, modern, contemporary, etc). The museum actually spans over a large, all cannot be covered in few hours. You need almost a day. Also, it workshops and festivals for all kinds of people. It also offers for learning arts, especially for kids.
