	*Canadian Museum of Nature*

	The Canadian Museum of Nature is more than a natural history museum that creates and develops exhibitions for public viewing.

Come inside!

	*Currency Museum of the Bank of Canada*

	Step back in time...and explore the evolution of money around the world and through the ages at the Currency Museum of the Bank of Canada. A fascinating variety of mediums of exchange including shells, teeth and cacao beans, as well as today's currency, tells us about the societies where they originated. Entrance and all activities at the Currency Museum are free. Enjoy your lunch and a few moments of rest in our magnificent tropical garden, which leads you to the Currency Museum. An informative hour-long guided tour is available.

	*National Archives of Canada*

	The National Archives is a treasure house of the memory of Canada. We care for and share millions of documents of all kinds — films, maps, diaries, treaties, journals, art, government records, photographs, sound recordings and more. Many are of unique value and exceptional beauty. Some are centuries old. All reveal how we have lived in this place called Canada and enable Canadians to better understand the story of their country and of their fellow citizens.

	*National Aviation Museum*

	A visit to the National Aviation Museum can be fun and exciting for the whole family. See the website for current programs and a calendar of events. We are located at Aviation and Rockcliffe Parkways (Rockcliffe Airport).

	*National Gallery of Canada*

	The National Gallery of Canada, a visual arts museum of international stature, holds its collections of art in trust for all Canadians. The mandate of the National gallery, as set out in the 1990 Museums Act is: to develop, maintain and make known, throughout Canada and internationally, a national collection of works of art, historic and contemporary, with special but not exclusive reference to Canada; and to further knowledge, understanding and enjoyment of art in general among all Canadians.
