History

Resourceful and ingenious, the people of Newfoundland and Labrador have made a living from the sea and the land. This exhibition features commonly-used items dating from the 1800s through to now.

The ground floor celebrates our profound connection to the sea. It includes tools of the inshore and offshore fisheries and the merchant operations behind these industries. Artifacts of ships, sailing and navigation are featured.

The second floor presents life on the land. Objects from our agricultural and transportation collections and items related to trades, professions and work in the home are on display.
