The Colonial Secrets of Old Montreal Walking Tour smashes through the “tourist gaze” to reveal the area’s hidden histories, glossed-over facts and dark truths.Starting at Pointe-à-Callière Museum, the site of the Ville-Marie Fort of 1642, the tour takes guests to the most notorious colonial places in Old Montreal.
These include Place-Royale, the Old Seminary, and the Place D’Armes. We also visit the site of the old Hotel-Dieu Hospital and conclude the tour where colonial authorities executed a black slave woman in 1734.
The tour is approximately 90 minutes and is hosted by guides with lived experience.
Currently in the testing phase, this tour has only a $5 reservation fee.
If you enjoy the tour, please consider tipping the guides!
Lastly, a trigger warning: this tour features dark stories of colonial violence and graphic descriptions of numerous brutal atrocities.
This is a presentation of Hidden Montreal, Haunted Montreal's new sister company. Stay tuned for more details about other Hidden Montreat tours!
