Pioneer Village Museum

Harvest the past, sow the future. That’s the Pioneer Village Museum’s motto, and they do a fantastic job at it! Established in 1967, the Pioneer Village Museum (owned by the Broken Beau Historical Society) recreated a small rural Manitoba community in the early 1900s. Be transported back in time and take in the magnificent sights like the railway station, barbershop, blacksmith shop, a school, pioneer home, and much more.

Years ago, most of the pioneers of this region were of Polish, Ukrainian, or German descent, coming from the areas known as Galicia and Volhynia. These pioneers had to face many hardships in carving out the wilderness and learning to adapt to a new way of life. Many artifacts (over 300) depicting the early pioneers of the surrounding area’s lifestyle are located in the Museum’s buildings.
