Maintained and operated with love and respect. One of my favourite stops with visitors. Tea and biscuits at Arabella's Tea Room is lovely.

It's a lovely place, run by volunteers and their Christmas festival is the best!

Derek Macdonald

Great experience, thank you...

Lin Joyce

Terrific Christmas Festival. Nice event for young and old alike.

Great little Museum with numerous historical buildings (including a working Blacksmith shop). Staff are very knowledgeable and friendly. Some great events & presentations here (especially during Port Colborne Canal Days). Arabella's Tea House is at the back - fresh Tea & Biscuits all week in the Summer! Historic Archives & Library are next door.

I loved the museum. It has exhibits both inside and outside and stands true to the nature of the town. It was real cozy and reminded me of why I love museums. Museums transcend you beyond time and this place was just that. It was beautifully structured and the receptionist was so kind. A must visit, to really get to know Port Colborne ????

Such a jewel in this wonderful lock town. My only complaint is, I wish it was bigger!

Excellent educational site with hands-on exhibits.

Lovely little museum. Great heritage buildings, very well maintained. An easy way to spend an hour (and see perhaps the oldest surviving cars ever made in Canada). Also one of the oldest school houses. Great stop just 20min or so from Crystal Beach

Such an interesting and welcoming treasure, right in our proverbial back yard. I live in Youngstown NY, and was made to feel so welcome. A glimpse back in time with a smile.

Enjoyed visiting for History event and pie social. Good to catch up with everyone.

Lovely little place with lots to see and do! The exhibits change regularly and the volunteers are more than happy to answer any questions you may have. My family and I love to stop in at the Arabaella's tea room (open seasonally), located on the same property.

I went there very spontaneously. from the outside say it is very small. was very surprised. I really liked it very much. think it's nice that these buildings are preserved. Thus also the history of the immigrants from Canada. Very nice and friendly staff.

This is a hidden gem of the town. They also have a great virtual tour of the Welland canal which is impressive. It was a great experience for our family together with locks and ships observation at Port Colborne!
