Veterans Museum

Veterans Museum

The Veterans Museum highlights the crucial role played by the English- and French-speaking inhabitants of the Magdalen Islands during major military conflicts of the 20th century, such as the First and Second World Wars, as well as the Korean War. The exhibition evokes the names, events, and feats of arms, while also addressing the human cost of wars, still visible today. You will discover an impressive collection of objects and artifacts related to Magdalen Islands soldiers and their families, including uniforms, military equipment, medals, letters, and many other treasures. These pieces enrich the permanent exhibition, which traces the commitment of Magdalen Islands residents to the Canadian Armed Forces.
