Village Québécois d'Antan, Open-air museum in Drummondville, Canada.
The Village Québécois d'Antan spans 2.8 kilometers and features 70 historic buildings, including houses, a school, and a doctor's residence from the 19th century.
Founded in 1977 by historian Claude Verrier and the Chamber of Commerce of Drummond County, this historical village opened its doors to the public in 1980.
Twenty-two guides in period costumes demonstrate traditional artisan activities, while eighteen economuseums showcase the trades and skills of Quebec's past.
