1902 - RCA Victor Company

4436 Saint-Antoine West · Saint-Henri

The inventor of the gramophone, Emile Berliner, had a factory built in Saint-Henri in 1908. It was later sold to the RCA Victor Company and expanded in 1940. Around this time, a state-of-the-art recording studio was also installed on the premises. After the gramophone era, the factory went on to manufacture radios and televisions. In the 1960s, it even produced Canada’s first satellite, the Alouette 1. Since 1998, it has been the site of the MOEB (Emile Berliner Museum of Sound).
