Our long-term galleries tell many parallel stories relevant to the growth and development of Peterborough, from pre-contact to modern day.  Bring the family and enjoy the many activities designed to enrich your experience and engage youthful minds in exploring our past.

Out of town that weekend?  No problem.  There are countless wonderful museums in Ontario - each telling their own stories, each with their own collections of treasures from the past.  You can learn more about the museums in Ontario by visiting http://www.museumsontario.ca/.
