Welcome
to the Quesnel Museum
With
over 30,415 artifacts and archival items professionally preserved and
present in 11,000 square feet of ground level display space, we are repeatedly
proclaimed BC's best community museum by residents and visitors alike.
Popular attractions include one of the most significant collections of rare Chinese artifacts in North America. The young imagine whilst the old reminisce over our Cariboo Home exhibit complete with boudoir, parlour, laundry and kitchen. Our Village Street faithfully reflects pioneer life at a general store, an old time school-room, a barber shop, the dentist's office and the hospital, complete with Dr. G.R. Baker's medical instruments.
Our reputable accessions policies have yielded large inventories of high quality artifacts and archives exclusive to the Quesnel and District Museum and Archives.
