The Basilian Fathers Museum was established in 1953 to preserve the history, culture, and religion of the pioneers of the Beaver Lake–Mundare settlement and the early Basilians who served the area. The building was constructed in 1990 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the arrival of the Ukrainian settlers in Canada. Prior to this, the first museum was a two-story building behind the present Sts. Peter and Paul Ukrainian Catholic Church.

In the museum, you can find items illustrating the lifestyle and spiritual guidance of Ukrainian settlers in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. Apart from ethnographic and religious artifacts, visitors can find documentary archives and more than 6,000 photographs. Furthermore, there is a non-circulating reference library with antique maps and books that date back to the fifteenth century.
