Restigouche New Brunswick
Since 1967, The Restigouche Regional Museum has preserved and displayed artifacts on the heritage, culture, history, and genealogy relating to Restigouche County in Dalhousie, New Brunswick. They are housed in the historic Courthouse and Jail, which in itself has a fascinating history. The upper floor of the historic jail features a pristine studio space that offers a 360 degree view of the town and river with amazing light, a perfect space to rent for art classes and workshops.
Across the street, we offer tours of St. Mary's Church, built in 1869, featuring Gothic Revival Architecture, hand carved wooden interior, and superior acoustics. Past events at this venue include concerts, weddings, and private rentals. Please contact the Museum to inquire about the church, courthouse, and artist's studio!
The Museum is open from June to September. They offer additional tours by appointment in May and October, perfect for class trips.
The Restigouche Regional Museum offers guided tours through various exhibits, each highlighting different aspects of the Restigouche's history and culture from fossils to recent history. For children we have scavenger hunts and interactive displays.
The museum also hosts several public events including local author and historian presentations, special events, and changing exhibits
They also have collection photos and archival information documenting the region's history. Research requests, inquiries, and event bookings are accepted year round.
