Fragments of Memories (2011)

Delve deep into the storerooms of the Ville de Montréal's archaeological collections, which contain several hundred thousand artefacts from almost 200 archaeological sites within the city's borders. More than 8,000 of these objects form the reference collection. They were found at sites of the prehistoric and historic (from 4000 BP to today) periods, Aboriginal occupations, the French and English regimes, and the industrial period.

Montréal, a City Built on the Strength
of its Past (2011)

Explore the urban landscape of fortified Montréal, from the erection of the wooden palisade in the seventeenth century to construction of the stone fortifications in the eighteenth century. This imposing military work, with six‐metre‐high walls forming fourteen defensive fronts, circled the city, protecting its large institutional buildings adorned with walled gardens and some four hundred houses.

In the Shadow of Notre‐Dame (2006)

When the Place d'Armes area, in Old Montréal, was redeveloped, archaeological excavations uncovered the foundations of the first Notre‐Dame Church and brought to light the contours of the first parish cemetery in Ville‐ Marie. Archaeologists had an opportunity to study the graves and human remains found along Rue Saint‐ Sulpice and under the parvis of Notre‐Dame Basilica.
