Discover this cultural place, which houses both the Archives and the museum of the Territorial Collectivity of Saint-Pierre and Miquelon. In a quality scenography, immerse yourself in the great history and the small stories of the archipelago… including that of the guillotine, preserved here in memory of the past. Numerous events are offered throughout the year (exhibitions, animations, workshops, shows, conferences, etc.): something to fascinate young and old alike!
If you are sensitive to the history of the archipelago, the Heritage Museum is a must for you.
Located in the former public school of l’Île aux Marins, as well as in the Maison Jézéquel and the Maison Grise, this museum houses part of the collections belonging to the Association de Sauvegarde du Patrimoine de l’Archipel (association for the conservation of the archipelago’s heritage): objects from the past illustrating everyday practices and traditional know-how, in a period setting!
