Brother André's Museum : When Brother Andre died in 1937 he left behind the fulfillment of his lifelong dream: the construction of a church in honour of St Joseph. Located on the side of Mount Royal, this museum in the magnificent St Joseph's Oratory holds Brother Andre's heart, as well as a collection of more than 300 nativity scenes from all over the world. You will also find discarded crutches, walking sticks and wheelchairs left behind by those who felt themselves healed through Brother Andre's intercession.

Canadian Centre for Architecture (CCA) : Housed in a much lauded modern building and the 125-year-old Shaughnessy House, this museum offers fascinating glimpses into architecture, urban design and more esoteric fields (a recent exhibit focused on the American Lawn). Permanent collections include the sketches, plans and photographs of famous architects and buildings. The museum frequently plays host to premiere touring exhibits, which have in the past included Mies [van der Rohe] in America, and John Soane (1753-1837).
