Montreal, capital: An interactive experience

3D model of the Parliament. The two-storey building features a neoclassical façade adorned with columns, balustrades, and rows of aligned windows. It stands on a square, surrounded by smaller buildings and trees. There is also street furniture, including lampposts and wooden barrels. The sky is partly cloudy, and a bird flies in the foreground.

At the heart of present-day Old Montreal is an important archaeological site that serves as a reminder that Montreal was once the capital of the Province of Canada from 1844 to 1849.
