Other Historical Collections

Other Historical Collections

In addition to the 51³Ô¹ÏÍømuseums, there are other collections and exhibits of a specialized nature curated by McGill's Heritage Advisory Committee.

51³Ô¹ÏÍøbegan accumulating cultural property by virtue of acquisition or donation even before the university itself was established. At the Montreal Medical Institute, which became McGill’s Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, specimens were collected and used as teaching tools as early as 1822. Articles published about early collections gained international recognition for faculty members such as Andrew Fernando Holmes and Sir William Dawson. Their collections and others had a major influence on building McGill’s reputation as a learned institution.
