Amazing venue and ambience. Life music if you are lucky and lots of places to sot and rest, take a cup of coffee or a beer

Nice square with a statue in the center and a decent amount of benches. Centrally located near many attractions, shops and resturantes

Nice square to sit and listen to music year round with views of Notre Dame Cathédral. Be careful of pickpockets. In general, relaxed atmosphere with tourists and workers passing through, reading a book, eating a snack, etc.

Amazing to view beautiful sculptures and magnificent monuments

Beautiful statue, surrounded by old buildings with magnificent design.

Great to walk by at night for winter.

Neat little park area to rest and relax across from the Notre Dame Basilica.

Such a lively area. With cobblestone ground work and beautiful old atmosphere with a fountain in the centre. Buskers may be found here.

Great

Beautiful monument in a busy and popular area. The monument is located in parkland directly between the monumental Bank of Montreal and the Notre Dame Basilica of Montreal. In addition to the design of the church (outside vs inside), the French-English love-hate relationship is also discussed in two other statues.

Simple and effective square in front of the Notre Dame Basilica - acts as a great meeting place or place to sit (benches under trees and often musicians)

Must visit Montreal!

Nice square during a rainy day. Not so much once it gets crowded

An nice place for a stroll, offering sights of beautiful architecture opposing the cathedral.

If you want to see the best historical sights in Montréal from one spot, Place d'Armes is the place to be. Surrounded by the important buildings built in different styles over a long period of time, and graced by the twin towers of Basilique Notre-Dame de Montréal, this lovely square is the focal point of the city. And right in the centre stood the Maisonneuve Monument, commemorating Paul Chomedey de Maisonneuve, the founder of Montréal. At the foot of the monument, four more noticeable persons or race from Montréal are celebrated: Charles Le Moyne, Lambert Closse, Jeanne Mance and Iroquois.

You’ll come here if you come to the Notre dame

The small square and sculptures right in front of the church are illuminated at night. Kilise giriş 20 Kanada doları

A nice spot to spend 5 minutes or 50! This plaza is always active!

Beautiful square. Pay attention to the monument The English Pug and The French Poodle

Pretty square across the great cathedral of Notredame. Popular to tourist and many stand-up musicians. Can get crowded as it also serve as staging area for the Cathedral tourists.

Nice ambiance in Old Montreal. Important parts of the city history and landmarks are on and around this monument. Take your time to observe its details!

Statue in beautiful Old Montreal square, in front of Notre Dame

Impressive little square in the heart of old city.

It looks very nice at night

Must see area in Montréal. We went night time and it was beautiful.

beautiful little square with all the architecture eye candy you could ask for. just missing a coffee stand.

The Monument to Montreal's First Governor at Weapons Square is flanked by old buildings. To the south, the Notre Damme basilica from the 19th century and the National Bank building, and to the north, the Hotel and the Bank of Montreal. The monument is visited by many tourists, and the square itself is also interesting. In summer, various cultural events are organized here, we will hear speeches from people of different political options, or the sounds of a guitar. Thus, the square has its own charm and history.

Beautiful! Great area around it to sit and enjoy the day!

I’ve enjoyed walking in this area, such an amazing historical spot. 😍

When you come here you feel yourself in the heart of a great history which established our great city of Montréal
