I'm surprised it was given that much presence. Was it really that popular back when it was open?

Wax museums kind of hit their peak in the 50's/60's. We even had a Madame Tussauds (sp?) on Ste Catherine for a year or two. This one was NEVER exciting. There was scenes of lions and martyrs that may have impressed me as a small child but were disappointing and actually laughable later on. It was a Christian theme so it had a limited appeal. There was also a history section with the standard French and British soldiers facing each other with some Indians watching from behind trees, lol.
