Located on the same premise as the Waterwheel Park, the Chemainus Museum gives visitors a detailed insight into the town’s history that is strongly rooted in timber. The museum staff is well read on the town’s history and can answer any questions you may have.
Additionally, the museum has a gift shop where you can pick up some handcrafted souvenirs to remember your trip and an observation point overlooking the site of the first and present sawmill. The scenic location also includes views of the breathtaking Gulf Islands. Visit the Chemainus Valley Museum to experience the town’s history and evolution over time.
