At the Lacombe Museums,
there's a new adventure every day
With live demonstrations and guided tours, no two visits are ever the same.
Every day our costumed interpreters entertain & educate guests about the social, economic and cultural affairs of Western Canada’s early development, specific to the Lacombe & District.
Check the activities listed below to see when you can churn your own butter & learn to spin wool, try your hand at traditional blacksmithing techniques in Alberta's oldest still running Blacksmith Shop or visit our Antique Photo Parlour!
