Description


Since 1965, the W8banaki Nation has been revealed through the walls of the Musée des Abénakis. Quebec's first Indigenous Museum is a living witness to the pride of this people. Its new permanent exhibition, W8banakiak, leads directly to the heart of the human beings who live with this ancestral historical heritage. Their ways of being, knowing, speaking, and acting are conveyed through sight, touch, and even smell. Sensing the power of this historic site, exploring the Tolba trail, and indulging in the Kiz8bak store are also part of this unforgettable journey.

Get ready! You will feel it with all your senses! 

The Musée des Abénakis is also a partner of Quebec Aboriginal Tourism.
