Purchased by Marguerite Bourgeoys in 1662, this magnificent 300-year-old house is one of the most beautiful examples of traditional Québec architecture. Converted into a museum in 1966, it showcases various aspects of rural life in the 17th century and the extraordinary experience of the King's Wards. Visitors can enjoy discovering shows and original, captivating programming with artisans, musicians, actors, and storytellers. Temporary exhibits are housed in the 19th-century stone barn, the garden recreated in the spirit of New France, and the new thematic garden of the Métayères.
