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

If you’re under 25, you get in for free! I only discovered this a month before my birthday—better late than never, right? Maybe someone else will appreciate the heads-up 🤭 One thing I love about this museum is how many quiet corners there are where you can soak in the city views. I come here not just for the art, but to let it inspire me — along with the beautiful panoramas. There’s something about this place that feeds both the mind and the soul.

This fine art museum is a must-visit if you’re in Montreal! I loved the wide variety of art on display,from classic European paintings to contemporary installations, thought provoking sculptures, and beautiful Indigenous Canadian works. They also have a fascinating collection of ancient artifacts that really help you imagine the everyday life of people in the ancient world. The admission fee is fair, and they provide free coat check, which is super convenient. While you can’t bring water bottles into the gallery, there are water stations available throughout the museum to keep you hydrated. Another highlight is the gift shop,perfect for browsing after your visit. They offer a lovely selection of postcards, art prints, books, and unique souvenirs that are great for tourists or gifts for friends. We really enjoyed taking a piece of the museum home with us.

Huge gallery with multiple buildings and rooms within them . A fantastic range of artistic styles, blending modern and contemporary with older pieces, often making connections stylistically between them. New design wing particularly good at this imo. You need hours to see it all.

This is a beautiful and expansive museum which is definitely worth visiting. We were so into taking our time in the exhibits that we had to make sure we finished by closing! With several floors of art covering multiple periods, there's a lot to see here. They also have a gift shop with plenty of unique merchandise. Buying tickets online is very easy.

The museum is absolutely stunning. The architecture alone is worth the visit - the buildings are beautiful, blending historic charm with modern design. The collections are diverse and thoughtful curated with something for everyone. It’s a place where you can easily spend hours exploring. Definitely a must see if you’re in Montreal - whether you’re an art lover or just looking for a meaningful and inspiring experience.
