British Columbia - Valemount Museum & Archives

Valemount, BC - The Valemount Museum, located in a historic Valemount railway station, has something for every member of the family! The Valemount Museum has displays on the Railway (rail camps and towns), a model railroad that even runs through the bathroom.

Our building has three levels, the main floor, an upstairs, as well as the basement. Visitors can see our many displays and exhibits. On the main floor, we have displays on railroad towns, Japanese internment camps, Valemount pioneers, local War Heros, and more. Some of the artists on display include Margaret McKirdy's sculptures, and James Vanslyk's art. In the basement we have recreated an outfitting and trapper's cabin. There is also the recently added Ishbel Cochrane exhibit. The exhibit was created in memory of Ishbel Cochrane, and to feature the Hargreaves Brothers Outfitting Company and the historic Mount Robson Ranch. The bedrooms upstairs also have exhibits. In addition we have a restored CN Caboose, as well as the annex building which contains logging and farming artifacts.
