Pointe-a-Calliere has been recognized as a national historic site since 1998.

Since it opened, it has welcomed more than 350,000 visitors a year. Nearly 4.5 million people have come to the Museum since 1992. Pointe-a-Calliere has been honoured with more than fifty national and international awards.
