Fort Chipewyan Bicentennial Museum

About.

The Fort Chipewyan Bicentennial Museum opened in 1990. It is a full sized reproduction of the Hudson's Bay Company 1870 stores building. The Museum construction was undertaken as part of the 1988 Bicentennial celebrations in Fort Chipewyan.

​

Native and history displays depict the key role Fort Chipewyan played in Canada's early exploration and fur trade. Included in the exhibits is a model of the fort from the late 1800's 

​

National and Provincial exhibits are also regularly featured.
