History
picture of hillcrest museum

Step back in time at the Hillcrest museum by seeing all the fascinating displays of life in the early 1900s.

Jam-packed with historically significant artifacts from early prairie life to Aboriginal collections, to the foundation of Souris and its parts in the world wars.

A great place for kids to learn and play by seeing the extensive butterfly collection, vintage fire engine, and CP Rail Caboose on display.
