“Unexpected Treasure”
A museum is a museum is a museum - until you go to the Morrin Centre. The guided tour informs and the fact that the building was once a jail, college and now library is unexpected. The original jail cells really give perspective of how abysmal the conditions were and the original graffiti is visible on the wooden floor. The college renovated the space leaving this legacy behind while providing a glimpse into the eclectic education provided to a select few students. There is an original dark room that may be the oldest existing dark room in the world! Check this museum out and take a step back into Quebec history.

“Fascinating tour”
We took the English tour through the Morrin centre and our tour guide was excellent. He was a history teacher and was very good at keeping the group engaged and telling interesting facts about the centre. It was one of the most interesting tours I have ever taken through a museum.
