Greetings to all Friends of the Château!
From April 27 to May 1, we invite your to wear your Château Ramezay pin. Show your support for the Château!
If people ask: “What’s that pin?”
Answer: It’s a pin from the Château Ramezay. It represents the coat-of-arms of Claude de Ramezay, governor of Montréal in the early 18th century.
If they ask: ‘’What is the Château Ramezay?’’
Answer: It’s a private museum in Old Montréal, in front of City Hall, where
I volunteer as a guide/fund-raiser/administrator, etc. More than 100 people volunteer at the Château and help is always welcome!
Why not invite your friends to join us at our next event?!
You can add:
The museum first opened its doors on May 1st, 1895, so we’ll be celebrating our 120thanniversary this week. Not only is the Château the oldest museum of its kind in Quebec, it was the first building in the province to be classified an historic monument.
Every year, the Château welcomes visitors from around the world, attracted by its exhibitions but also by its historic rooms and gardens, which can be rented for special occasions. The Château has become a popular place for children’s birthday parties!
Show your connection with the Château Ramezay by adding us to your Facebook and LinkedIn profiles.
Thank you for supporting us and raising awareness of the Château!
Best regards,
Château Ramezay Team
