The museum has a rich history, in terms of both its historical transformation and its architecture. Considered the most beautiful neo-Gothic church in Montreal, it contains, among other things, exceptional stained-glass windows, a wooden vault with carved angels and an organ rebuilt by the famous Casavant company. The MUMAQ has quite a story to tell!
