Museum of Civilization
100 Rue Laurier, Gatineau, QC K1A 0M8, Canada
About the company:
Seeing the Museum of Civilization outside, you realize that it must be a grandiose treasury of historical artifacts. No wonder, it is one of the most famous buildings in Canada. Its design is the embodiment of the Bafn Ridge in architecture, which makes you admire the majesty, and at the same time the weightlessness of the building.
The exposition meets all expectations from the grand facade of the museum. The three halls tell the story of how Canadian civilization developed, from the indigenous people to modernity. All exhibits are combined in compositions that tell about the life of people of a particular era.
The majestic totems, tomahawks and pipes of the world in the hands of Indian mannequins from the first hall will tell about the life of the aborigines of North America. With the help of multimedia, you will see the dances and rituals of the Aborigines.
The second hall is a history of settlement, beginning with the arrival of the Vikings, told also with the help of scenes of everyday life and multimedia.
5 million exhibits, 2000 of which are exhibited – this museum is truly great.
