Museums

The County of Annapolis is rooted in history, heritage, and culture. It is home to the first permanent settlement in Canada, which was a partnership between the Mi'kmaw of L'sitkuk area and Samuel de Champlain and other settlers from France.

As a result of the County's rich history we have many museums which showcase different aspects and periods of Canadian history. The following is a list of museums in the region. For more information please visit the hyperlinks below.
