Musée des Hospitalières de l'Hôtel-Dieu de Montréal


What a long name for a museum. Located at the corner of Des Pins and St-Urbain, this museum provides insight into the history of medicine in the city's early days. Th museum takes a look back at the physicians, nurses and apothecaries who made their quests to comfort the sick. From long forgotten treatments to the important discoveries made throughout history; from the foundation of a nursing school to the nationalization of health care services, the history of medicine in Quebec is unfolded in this museum located within the hospital itself.
