You have reached the new website of The Military Museums, Western Canada's largest military museum.
The Military Museums is a compendium of
7 museums situated on 13 acres, encompassing an area of 107,000 square feet and displaying Canadian Forces’ history and heritage from the beginning to present day.
As the last of the remains of dust from construction are cleaned up, volunteers are working hard to prepare for the grand re-opening of the
Naval Museum in its new location in the summer of 2008! Bookmark this website to get up to date information on the grand openings of the new Discovery Centre, the Air Force Museum and the expanded U of C military history and strategic studies library and archives.
