The Canadian Museum of Civilization
Corporation, CMCC (composed of the Canadian Museum of
Civilization and the Canadian War Museum), is pleased to present
an evolving searchable catalogue of its collections. Types of
artifacts found in our database include:
archaeological specimens, aboriginal arts
and artifacts, folk art, furniture, war art, military objects,
glass, porcelain, textiles and much more.
We offer you two options for exploring the collection:
Search the on-line catalogue
of our collection. This catalogue now contains more than 200,000
objects and will continue to grow until the majority of our more
than a million artifacts are included.
Browse along the aisles of a
virtual storage space and you'll discover a pre-selected sample
(approximately 1500 items) of the wide range of objects to be
found in the CMCC's collection. |

This catalogue is presented for research and
personal use only.
For any other use, visitors to the web site of the Canadian
Museum of Civilization Corporation must obtain prior written
authorization from the CMCC before reproducing or transmitting
any image or text in the catalogue. Anyone who engages in
unauthorized reproduction, alteration or transmission of any
image or text will be subject to legal proceedings.
The artifact collection of the CMCC is very diverse. The subject
matter of some of the artifacts could offend certain people. A
few of them depict graphic images of war, violence or are of an
adult nature. Viewer discretion is advised. The collection also
contains culturally sensitive artifacts which are not presented
in the catalogue.
The CMCC has the
mandate to preserve, on behalf of present and future generations
of Canadians, a vast storehouse of almost
one million artifacts and works of
art. These artifacts are culturally important facets of
Canadian history and heritage. They are the witness of the past
and present of Canadians of all origins and reflect the Canadian
identity.
