Pioneer Village Museum

This small town museum offers a wonderful glimpse into the past. We try to visit every year during Heritage Day; a one day celebration of rural prairie life from previous generations.

Must stop-at local museum featuring the agricultural and commercial history of the Beausejour / Brokenhead area. Plan to spend at least a couple of hours taking in vintage structures and artifacts, including general stores, a train station, a former school, a rural social hall, and more.

Wow. What a difference 4(?) Years make! We attended PVM Heritage Day again, with our Yurkowski Family Farm raw clover honey. Our bee farm is only 20 minutes north of Beausejour. This was a great event for everyone! Once again my son helped out, but this time he's 9.

Come and show your children and grandchildren what livening in the olden days was all about! A good education in how difficult life was being a settler and a farmer in Canada!

History/Vintage/Collectible buffs.. if in Beausejour for a half or full day and you have an interest in the past, this is a a stop worth your time.There are some 20 bldgs and countless pieces of agricultural, firefighting and rural machinery on the grounds. The house that Ed Schreyer (Premier of MB and GovGen of Canada) grew up in, a 1 room school house, former CPR train station, Ukrainian Catholic Church, log house among others are notable for their artifacts and an accurate depiction of our ancestors way of life.The general store's shelves are filled with 100s of products from eras gone by including soaps, medicines, dry goods and more. Each bldg has a detailed account of the history of the bldg and when it was brought to the Museum. Don't miss the vintage firefighting equipment including a beautiful 1900s Chrysler. If you are interested in the past, or nostalgic, a pleasant hr or 2 here will make you smile.

I was skeptical on how good a small town museum could be.Pioneer Village surprised, and amazed me.They have so much history, which helped me learn a lot about this town.They made me feel as if I was living in a different time almost with how it was designed and set up.

So much to see here! Loved it all! Will definitely need to go again. You can't take it all in as there is a ton of great history to experience.

Thanks to the people behind it who preserves and maintains the memories of yesterday. Amazing place to look into history.

I went for the Farmers Market. Lots of nest stuff and The Best Lemonade ever at the Lemonade stand.

Really nice museum. We discovered it by chance and were finally able to visit it as it only opens a couple of months per year. Sarah, a summer student worker was really helpful answering mamy questions to my kids. And we met James, a volunteer who was a highlight on the visit, telling us many stories and having great interactions with the kids. It was a wonderful weekend visit and we learned a lot in a fun way
