Ottawa is the capital city where museum life is intertwined with history, science and living culture. The city attracts travelers with a variety of expositions: from technical and natural science collections to military artifacts and interactive children's halls. A walk along the museum routes of Ottawa can captivate not only history lovers, but also those who are looking for vivid impressions and family entertainment.
In Ottawa there are outstanding museum institutions: the Canadian Museum of Science and Technology with a huge interactive exhibition and technical achievements, the Canadian Museum of Aviation and Space with an extensive landfill of aircraft and space technology, the National Museum of Money with the largest collection of banknotes and coins of Canada, as well as the Canadian Museum of Agriculture on the territory of the Central Experimental Farm, where agricultural technologies and life are presented. Nature lovers will find interest in the Canadian Museum of Nature, located on the grounds of William's former farm, and military history is detailed in the Canadian War Museum next to the National Gallery. For families and children, the Canadian Children's Museum and interactive programs are available, and more chamber collections are collected at the Nepean Museum with about 20,000 exhibits, the Numismatic Museum and the Postal Museum. In the vicinity of the city, it is worth visiting the Merikville Museum-Blockpost on the Rideau Canal and such historic houses as the Lorier Museum and the Billings Manor, where the pages of local history come to life.
The museum poster of Ottawa is dynamic: temporary exhibitions and imported expositions regularly appear in the halls, thematic projects and educational programs for adults and children change. Exhibition spaces often update expositions on science, history and art, special interactive programs for families, educational tours and seasonal projects are held, so it makes sense to check the schedules and posters of museums in advance so as not to miss especially interesting demonstration projects and temporary collections.
Come to Ottawa and make your itinerary through museums – it’s a great trip for the whole family or an exciting themed trip. To get more insights and save time, book guided tours with a private guide: local guides know the hidden histories of the exhibits, suggest optimal routes and make museum walks lively and memorable. Plan your trip ahead, book excursions and discover the museum mosaic of the Canadian capital.
