Vermilion Heritage Museum

Looking to the Past

The Vermilion Heritage Museum takes you through decades of times gone by, revealing Vermilion's captivating history. Located in the former S. R. P. Cooper School, a historic site, several displays are featured. One gallery leads you through the pioneer experience from exploration and to early settlement, depicting the life and times of the early settlers of this area. It will make you appreciate electricity and running water!

Another gallery allows you to travel through time to the Indian (arrowhead) era; the native artifacts revealed will amaze you! Other galleries show visitors what an early business looked like, as well as an agricultural display and general store, and many collectibles too! The Stavelock building showcases an early settler home; in its day, this type of construction was unique to this area.

This year the Museum will be open from 1pm to 5pm, May 22, 2010 to September 6, 2010 and will celebrate the 105th anniversary of Craigs Department Store, Long's Drug Store, CIBC and Alberta's History!

Take the whole family! There is so much to see, and with a donation for your admission, it’s worth making the trip!  Pop in to see us, or feel free to call 780-853-6211
