Walk through a 1920’s Canadian town as you learn and observe the traditional trades at Burnaby Village Museum. The buildings of the town are a mix of original constructions and recreations of older buildings made to house artifacts of the early 20th century. Staff members dress in period clothing as they display traditional artisan skills and live as though it were the 1920s. Visitors can wander the town and view the artifacts, which includes a 1920’s carousel that is available to ride. A restaurant in the village provides food options. Make Burnaby Village Museum a centerpiece of your Burnaby vacation itinerary, and find what else is worth visiting using our Burnaby day trip planning app.

    We visited during spring break with free admission! Great place to explore for a couple hours with the whole family! Kids loved the carousel and rolling down the grassy hill. The volunteers were great educators as well!
