You’ll be hard-pressed to experience Kings Landing all in one visit—the challenge is on! There is truly something for everyone—that is of course if you’d like to roll up your sleeves and immerse yourself.
At the core, Kings Landing is a museum. With over 70,000 artefacts, it has one of the largest collections in Atlantic Canada. The history told here reflects stories spanning over 150 years from the exodus of Loyalists during the American Revolution to the Victorians and the birth of Canada and on to the age of progress in the late 19th century and early 20thcentury.
The museum offers both the Exhibit Experience and the Village. You’ll find plenty of educational exhibits when you first enter the museum that provide insight into the history you’ll experience in the Village. You’ll also find the Kid Zone and where our tours kick-off. The Village is full of activity, with costumed characters depicting real people from New Brunswick’s colourful past, beautiful historic homes and friendly farm animals.
Every day at Kings Landing is a new experience, so be sure to check our calendar for the most up to date schedule of our programs and activities.
Lastly, save a little time to visit the Peddler’s Market to find that special souvenir to remember your visit.
