Our Commitment

Since 1979, our Museum has been at the forefront of Holocaust education, preservation of collections, and the transmission of memory of the Shoah in Canada. The Montreal Holocaust Museum is committed to countering hatred and antisemitism, promoting respect for human rights and human dignity, and contributing to a more just and socially responsible world.

As the world witnesses a rise of antisemitism and discrimination against minorities, the Museum will welcome visitors from Quebec, Canada, and around the world to two permanent exhibitions, including one for young audiences, as well as temporary exhibitions, virtual and travelling exhibitions, educational programs and public events in French and English.

We call on you to support the Give Voice campaign.

International Architectural Competition

We plan to achieve the highest level of architectural excellence and creativity through an international competition, which launched on December 1, 2021. Our new signature building will contribute to Montreal’s leadership in architecture as a UNESCO City of Design. A public work of art will also be commissioned and integrated into the architectural concept. The Montreal Holocaust Museum will be an example of accessibility and universal design, eco-responsibility and sustainable development.

Genocide still exists. That’s why people like me are compelled to talk about it, and the Montreal Holocaust Museum must exist.
