Greenwood: Its History and Collections: “Remembering Percy Nobbs”
The Greenwood Centre for Living History is not your typical museum. Donated in 1994 by Phoebe Nobbs Hyde to the Canadian Heritage of Quebec, this dynamic historical property will capture your imagination as you learn about the families who have called this place “home” for almost 300 years. Located in the beautiful town of Hudson some fifty kilometers West of Montreal, Greenwood provides a unique glimpse into the past where visitors are able to travel through time as they move from room to room.

Greenwood Centre for Living History
The Greenwood residence, with its collection of artefacts and furnishings, calls forth a delightful reflection of Canadians at home over three centuries and provides an intimate glimpse into the lives of its unique inhabitants. Only two families, the Sabourins and the Delesderniers, have lived at Greenwood since it was first built in 1732.
