Burnaby Village Museum
The Burnaby Village Museum, formerly known as the Heritage Village, is an open-air museum in Deer Lake Park in Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada. From May to September, it is open seasonally, and from September to March, it is open for special events. The Museum was initially called the Heritage Village when it opened in 1971. It has developed from a 4.3-acre property with a few exhibits to a 10-acre historic site and significant Metro Vancouver destination.
The Burnaby Village Museum is a rebuilt 1920s village with 31 full-scale buildings and costumed employees who exhibit traditional trades. The museum is spread out across 10 acres (4 hectares). Some of the structures are original heritage structures that have been relocated and renovated from other parts of the neighborhood. Others are replica buildings, such as a 1912 B.C. Electric Railway interurban trams, that were built to hold certain exhibitions and relics. The Museum is also home to the 1912 C. W. Parker Carousel, which is open to the public for rides.
