Does anyone know of the renaissance/medieval shop in Montreal's Old Port?

Question

I stumbled across it a couple of years ago before I lived in Montreal, and now I've gone back to Old Port to try and find it, but I can't. It might be more towards downtown than right in Old Port - I can't remember. As far as I can remember it had renaissance/medieval costumes and weapons, and I would really like to be able to find it again.... and I haven't been able to find it through the search engine.

Answer 1

I remember seeing a medieval shop on St-Denis street in Montreal...don't not really remember one in Montreal's Old Port.

I just did a google search on "medieval clothing montreal", and click on the first result. http://www.cangothfash.com/gothic.htm

And then went to the Quebec section...

They list a shop called "Excalibor" with two locations:

1- 122 St.Paul E. [which is located in Montreal's Old Port]

2- 4400 St-Denis

The name does ring a bell and I have been to the one on the St-Denis Street before.

Well, I just did a 411 search on these addresses and business' name and I can't seem to find anything. http://www.411.ca

Pierre is right, it may have been closed down.

Anyhoo, hope this sheds some light to the your question.

Also, there is another shop in Montreal called "Dracolite" that sells Medieval items etc. located at  6370 St-Hubert , Montréal, Québec H2S 2M2 http://bijouxmedievaux.com/english/

...thought you may be interested to know as well.

Happy searching!

Answer 2

There was one on St-Denis Street but it's no longer there.

But St-Denis is not in the Old Port area.

Answer 3

Have you considered asking the local storekeepers around that area yet?

The store you're looking for may be closed down now.

How many years ago was this - over two years ago do you think?

Any idea of its name?

Sorry - I wish I could be of more assistance to you!

Good luck with your quest!
