Founded in 1882, the Redpath Museum is one of Montréal’s most treasured institutions — a place where the wonders of the natural world and the richness of human history are preserved and celebrated under one roof. From ancient organisms to modern specimens, rare minerals to remarkable cultural belongings, every corner of this extraordinary museum tells a story millions of years in the making.

As a proud teaching and research unit of McGill University, the Redpath is also a living hub of discovery, where dedicated researchers explore the history of life itself and the breathtaking biodiversity of our planet. A visit here is nothing short of awe-inspiring.
