Welcome to The Military Museums

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.

If you have not booked a tour, please be sure to check out our newest in-house brochure Choose Your Own Adventure, which details some of the major highlights within each museum.  Find out about our Victoria Cross recipients, meet "Skinner" the talking horse, see a real Sherman tank and so much more!  Also, be sure to spend some time to enjoy the recently unveiled Mural Mosaic, a truly majestic masterpiece of Canadian military history.  Take a look at our new 2008 tourist brochure, hot off the press.

Coming soon, you will have the ability to make a request for an education program, event or a birthday party online. Improved search functions and user-friendly navigation will give you information fast at your fingertips. Take your time to explore and if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
