Gardiner Museum

Toronto


Opposite the Royal Ontario Museum, the Gardiner was founded by philanthropists to house their ceramics. Spread over three floors, the collections cover several millennia; various rooms focus on 17th- and 18th-century English tavern ware, Italian Renaissance majolica, ancient American earthenware and blue-and-white Chinese porcelain. Check the website for special exhibits. Free guided tours daily at 2pm.
