Musée québécois de culture populaire

Location: Trois-Rivières (Sector of Trois-Rivières)

A museum outing that's a delightful introduction to Québec's folk culture, with six exhibitions as enjoyable as they are daring and unconventional. One entire exhibition room is just for kids. Take a guided tour of the museum's Open Storage Area and its impressive ethnological collection, unique in Québec. The Old Prison of Trois-Rivières, associated with the museum, offers an unforgettable experience of life "inside." The guides—former inmates themselves - attest to the realities of incarceration, past and present. Don't miss the astonishing tour of the cells and dungeons!
