All Museums in Municipal District of Peace

Where in the Peace Country can you find a museum with a mechanical bull? The Brownvale North Peace Agricultural Museum!  This fiberglass bull originally had Brian Mulroney riding him when the statue was built by the Alberta Government for the Alberta Pavilion showcased in Vancouver for Expo 86! The original cost was $30,000 but the Brownvale Museum was lucky enough to have it donated to them by George McKenzie who purchased it at auction for $4000.  What better rider to portray than Brian Mulroney our Prime Minister in 1986,  too bad he’s been bucked off since the statue was originally installed!

Continue on past the bull to explore the historical buildings on display – the Grey Eagle school and the Brownvale Post Office are available for visitors to explore. Slip back through the decades when you step inside the buildings which feature many artifacts from the past, such as some old tractors and a gramophone complete with records. The museum also includes a selection of other agricultural equipment and road building equipment dating back to horse powered days!

The museum is located on the coroner of Highway 2 and Highway 737.  Free parking is available at this wheelchair accessible facility.   The museum hours are 11am – 3pm every Sunday from the May long weekend through to the September long weekend. Donations are gratefully accepted. For more information call – 780-740-5048.
