Huron-Wendat Museum
Inaugurated in 2008, the Huron-Wendat Museum is a national institution of the Huron-Wendat people that oversees the conservation and presentation of their heritage.
Through its permanent exhibition “Territories, Memories, Knowledge”, its temporary exhibitions schedule, activities and thematic workshops, the museum fulfills its mandate of teaching and disseminating knowledge of the history, the culture, and the arts of the Huron-Wendat people, as well as of other First Nations. For visitors, the museum is also the gateway to the interpretation of other heritage sites in Wendake, including the Notre-Dame-de-Lorette Church, the Kabir Kouba waterfall, and the Tsawenhohi House. Visit their website to discover the various visits, activities or workshops available.
