The best way to describe the St. Joseph Museum is that of a village within a village! The museum features a number of restored buildings, including houses, a school, a stable, a smithy and a general store. It also has one of the largest collections of stationary engines in Western Canada. See firsthand how pioneers of the area lived and worked over a century ago. Right next door, the new Parent Centre welcomes visitors and school tours.
A visit to Manitoba means travelling through Treaty 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 territory and communities signatory to Treaties 6 and 10, the original lands of the Anishinaabeg, Anish-Ininiwak, Dakota, Dené, Iiniwak, and Nehethowuk and the homeland of the Métis Nation. Its ongoing existence is thanks to these ancestors and their present day relatives who continue to love and care for the land.
