Winnipeg - Ross House Museum

Ross House (in the Joe Zuken Heritage Park in Meade St.) was the Red River Settlement's first post office and is one of the area's earliest examples of a half-timbered building.

Ross House was built in 1852 and was originally located near the banks of the Red River near Market Avenue but has since been moved the Joe Zuken Heritage Park. Ross House provides an interesting insight into the workings of Western Canada's first post office and into the lives of the Ross Family.

The Ross House building has been meticulously restored and the staff on hand are very helpful and available to answer any questions visitors may have.
