In our Galaxy, supernova remnants and pulsars are the two most numerous populations of non-thermal objects. The goal of this thesis is to study the extreme gamma-ray emission from these two astrophysical objects with Fermi -LAT and MAGIC. In particular, supernova remnants Cassiopeia A and SNR G24.7+0.6 and the Crab pulsar. Cassiopeia A, one of the historical supernova remnants and the prime candidate of its class to be a PeVatron accelerator, has been discarded as so since we provided the first measurement of a turn-off in the gamma-ray spectrum at 3 TeV, implying the emission observed is produced by the decay of neutral pions, produced in proton- proton interactions of a parent population of accelerated protons with an energy...
