About

Le plus vieil édifice de Winnipeg, Winnipeg's oldest building

Story

The Grey Nuns' convent, Winnipeg's oldest building, houses Le Musée de Saint-Boniface Museum. Built for the Grey Nuns who arrived in the Red River Colony in 1844, the structure is an outstanding example of Red River frame construction. The Museum presents an impressive collection of artifacts that reveal the lives and culture of the Francophone and Métis communities of Manitoba, including a special exhibit about Louis Riel, the "father" of Manitoba.

Le couvent des Soeurs Grises, le plus vieil édifice de Winnipeg, héberge le Musée de Saint-Boniface. Construit pour accueillir les Soeurs Grises qui arrivèrent dans la colonie de la Rivière-Rouge en 1844, il s'agit d'un merveilleux exemple de construction à ossature-bois dite « de la Rivière-Rouge ». Le Musée expose sa collection impressionnante d'objets représentatifs de la vie et de la culture des communautés francophone et métisse du Manitoba. Mentionnons, à titre d'exemple, son exposition spéciale sur Louis Riel, le « père » du Manitoba.

This is the oldest building in Winnipeg and the first hospital in Western Canada. Anyone interested in history should visit this place.

I love coming here once in awhile at the museum. Especially Louis Reil Day, when it's free.

Early artifacts from pioneer days of this region, guided tours highly recommended, or just browsing the panels if you have the time. Excellent historical items on display!

All round decent museum. Fairly focused so if the French or métis don't interest you at least some, you won't get much out of it.
