Very
nice
museum,
right
in
Old
Montreal,
steps
from
the
Old
Port.
The
main
floor
has
a
lot
of
artifacts
from
the
when
Mr.
Ramezay
would
have
been
alive,
including
some
really
old
legal
tender
from
before
the
Bank
of
Canada
issued
legal
tender.
For
me
though,
the
real
beauty
was
in
a
few
of
the
first
rooms
you
enter.
The
detailed
wood
panelling
on
the
walls
were
hand
carved!
I'm
a
bit
confused
about
their
origins
though
as
they
were
brought
into
Château
Ramezay
at
a
later
date,
so
possibly
not
original.
In
any
case,
very
beautiful
rooms.
On
the
basement
level
the
walls
and
ceilings
had
a
very
different
look
and
feel,
and
almost
seemed
more
like
what
I'd
expect
from
that
era.
The
basement
is
also
staged
like
what
it
would
have
been
like
at
that
time,
so
you
can
imagine
yourself
there
at
that
time,
and
what
it
might
have
been
like.
We
went
during
the
pandemic,
on
a
Sunday
morning,
and
we
had
the
place
to
ourselves
as
well,
so
that
was
wonderful.
If
you're
going
to
visit,
I'd
highly
suggest
a
Sunday
morning
if
you
want
the
place
to
yourself...
Well,
at
least
during
the
pandemic
where
foot
traffic
is
likely
to
be
less.
We
visited
a
bit
early
in
the
year,
so
the
gardens
behind
the
château
aren't
blooming
yet,
however
the
gardens
are
free
to
visit
any
time
for
anyone,
no
tickets
required,
so
we'll
go
back
in
a
month
or
so
to
check
them
out.
All
in
all,
nice
château
and
museum,
and
the
tickets
are
cheap,
so
I'd
say
worth
the
visit!
