Our Past is Your Adventure!
Sherbrooke Village depicts a typical Nova Scotian
village from 1860 to pre-WW1. With approximately 80 buildings, over 25 of those
open to the public, it is the largest Nova Scotia Museum site.
Visit the woodturner shop, blacksmith, pottery shop, and printery. During your visit, enjoy a delicious, light meal at the What Cheer Tea Room located within the Village.
Built on an economy of ship building, lumbering and gold mining, Sherbrooke Village reflects
Nova Scotia as it was during its industrial boom in the late 1800s and early
1900s. Visit a place where time has stood still... visit Historic Sherbrooke Village.
Mission Statement: Historic Sherbrooke Village is a Provincially significant heritage attraction that preserves and interprets the rich historical past of Sherbrooke and portrays community life in Nova Scotia over time.
