Discover the Largest Living History Site in Durham Region!

Nestled on the banks of Duffins Creek, our quaint pioneer village tells the story of Pickering’s development from earliest European settlement to 1910.

Explore the village on your own or with a costumed guide. Sign out a history mystery kit for added fun for all ages!

Tours of our heritage village are only available from April to December. During the winter months we still offer birthday parties, facility rentals, and programs at your space.

From April to December the Pickering Museum Village is open for private and school tours. To book a tour, please call 905.683.8401.

Group visits (12 or more people) are welcomed and must be booked in advance. Group rates will apply, see below for themes and prices.
