Reviews
I very much enjoyed my visit, but I would like to have seen a much broader selection of original artifacts on display -- rather than so many text-heavy interpretative panels and reproductions of historic photographs.

Wonderful place, full of magic and local history. Exhibits are very entertaining. Building is a heritage site and should be visited (all floors!). Great place to research the local archives and find fascinating information on local family history. Have always found the staff to be pleasant and helpful. Have visited it several times. Especially enjoyed the Acadian displays during the Acadian festival years ago.
