The 12e Régiment blindé du Canada, founded in 1871 and known for a long time as the Three Rivers Regiment, fought in several battles and campaigns in Sicily, Italy and the Netherlands during the Second World War.
The Trois-Rivières Military Museum’s mission is to preserve and pass on the history of this regiment and the Canadian Forces, and also Trois-Rivières’ rich military heritage. It’s housed in the Général-Jean-Victor-Allard Armoury, which opened its doors in 1907.
