About us
To learn everything about Quebec culture, you need to visit the POP Museum! This extraordinary museum showcases the unique identity of Quebec society in all its diversity and evolution. Dynamic and daring exhibitions that encourage discovery and reflection are presented here. The most popular exhibit, entitled Hang on Tight! – A Surprising Look at Québec Culture, deals with subjects such as language, gastronomy, hockey, First Nations, tales and legends, ingenuity, winter, and music. Interesting fact: each zone is introduced by a typical Quebec saying related to the featured theme.
As part of the museum complex, the Old Prison of Trois-Rivières, a classified historic monument, offers the unforgettable tour In the Big House: Encounters Behind Bars, shedding light on the evolution of the Quebec prison system from the 19th century to today, focusing on the prison experience and public perceptions. A must-see!
