Edmonton - Provincial Museum of Alberta

The Provincial Museum of Alberta has four main departments providing information about the varying topography and the fauna, geology and paleontology of the province. Particularly impressive in the Natural History Gallery are the life-size models of dinosaurs once found in Alberta. In the cultural history departments the culture and lives of the Indians, fur-traders, trappers and early settlers are all vividly displayed. In the "Wild Alberta" Gallery visitors can see educational diaramas depicting the wildlife and natural side of Alberta. There are also touring exhibitions and special events and programs.

All kinds of handicraft techniques are demonstrated on Sundays.

Linked to the Provincial Museum of Alberta are the Alberta Archives with an exceptional collection of historical photographs.
