Wow, this place is a treasure trove of old television sets! It was pretty cool because you can really see how things have changed, and our kids had no idea this is what TVs used to look like! Really fun and informative place.

This is a great chance to see how people lived and worked in the 1860s. You'll find craftsmen giving displays into the traditional trades of Canada.

This museum is dedicated to the history of shoes. Yes, it's a bit odd, but certainly not something you would find in any other locality. There are 10,000 pair of shoes on display from ancient to modern times, along with rich stories and companion exhibits. The museum is located in an award-winning structure and is child-friendly, so you can bring your whole family to enjoy the whimsical displays and activities, all surrounding the story of shoes. The Museum Shop is filled with lots of souvenirs relating to shoes, so you will be able to find some really unique gifts. Highly recommended!
