[2024 Montreal Attraction] Travel Guide for MEM - Centre des mémoires montréalaises (Updated Sep)

MEM, Montreal City Memory Museum

🌼 Yesterday, I checked in at the Montreal City Memory Museum MEM, exploring various aspects of Montreal's history and life. 🎈 MEM full name: Centre des Mémoires Montréalaises, located on Saint Laurent Boulevard, has two exhibitions inside, one is the City Memory Exhibition, and the other is a video gallery named Détours (Detours, Encounters). The exhibitions present the daily life of Montreal residents from a new perspective and in multiple dimensions. Through the exhibition, you will discover some knowledge points that you usually don't pay much attention to, such as: The current mayor of Montreal, Valérie Plante, is the first female mayor in Montreal's history; The Montreal Botanical Garden was started during the Great Depression to expand employment and has become one of the few public gardens in major Canadian cities dedicated to scientific research and children's education; By language classification, about 2.1% of Montreal's population speaks Chinese, 54% speak French, and 25% speak English... 💗 In short, if you want to learn about the history and life of Montreal, MEM will not disappoint you. ✅ Address: 1210 Boul.
