A time travel journey for the entire family

Dive into history of the 18th century! Relive the siege of Québec City, the Battle of the Plains of Abraham (1759) and the Battle of Sainte-Foy (1760). These pivotal events led to the creation of the park, which includes the Plains.

As you explore the exhibition, you will discover uniforms, maps, and models. They visually present the strategies, camp life, clothing, and regiments of the 18th century.

A projection with period testimonials also narrates the conflict in a moving way. Several perspectives of the events are presented.

The exhibition highlights lesser-known impacts of the conflict such as military discipline. Interactive games make the exhibition suitable for all ages.

Tickets can be purchased at the Museum's reception desk.
