DALNAVERT MUSEUM
AND VISITOR'S CENTRE

Tucked downtown between Broadway
and Assiniboine Avenue, Dalnavert
Museum and Visitors' Centre hides among
apartment blocks in what was once
a posh residential neighbourhood for
Winnipeg's upper-middle class. Built in
1895 for Sir Hugh John Macdonald and
his family, the Queen Anne Revival style
home has been lavishly restored to reflect
the late-Victorian grandeur of a prominent
Winnipeg household. Stop by for a tour of
the house or to walk through our beautiful
heritage garden. The sustainably built
Visitors' Centre surrounding the house
features a gift shop and special event
space for exhibits and private functions.
Please call for hours.
