The Canadian Museum of Civilization (French: Musée canadien des civilisations) is Canada's national museum of human history.[3] It is located in the Hull area of Gatineau, Quebec, directly across the Ottawa River from Parliament Hill in Ottawa, Ontario. The museum's primary purpose is to collect, study, preserve, and present material objects that illuminate the human history of Canada and the cultural diversity of its people. In October 2012, it was announced that the museum would be renamed as the Canadian Museum of History. At the same time the scope of the museum will change to focus more on Canadian history and people.[4][5]
