Musee canadien de l’Arme et du Bronze

Museum whose mission is to preserve our heritage, act as a witness to the past, protect a legacy for future generations and raise awareness of a special world and its beauties and challenges.

Reviewed By Dawn-World - Calgary, Canada

I was dubious, but decided to be open minded and I’m glad I was. This is a small museum featuring modern armament/guns, displayed in the basement of a beautiful building. The gorgeous display cases and intelligently displayed pieces completely intrigued us for 90 minutes...even though I don’t understand the fascination people have with weapons. The real attraction was the founder and our guide, Jacques. He was so darn personable and spoke with such thoughtful authority on a subject that has massive financial, economic, cultural and emotional repercussions...I loved the opportunity to learn and see so much. Fantastic experience for everyone.
