Halifax - Museum of Natural History

The Museum of Natural History in Halifax, with its entrance on Summer Street, gives a full account of the natural history of the province, including particularly impressive natural history and sea life dioramas (including whales and sharks). The museum also has exhibits about past history and social life.

The first sight to greet the visitor is a restored mail-coach, used on the Yarmouth-Tusket line in the late 19th C. There are also exhibits about the Micmac Indians and furnishings of the first European immigrants. The museum also maintains various historic buildings scattered over the entire province.
