Dalnavert Museum was built in 1895 on Treaty 1 territory. These lands and waterways were stewarded by and are the traditional lands of the Anishinaabeg, Cree, Anisininew, Dene, Dakota Peoples, and the National Homeland of the Red River Métis. We acknowledge and remember the wrongs that were and are done to the Indigenous peoples of this land through colonization and the systems built to perpetuate colonial attitudes and racism against Indigenous peoples.

As a museum, we seek to use the house as a tool to educate about the time period and to give space to all the perspectives and stories that the time period houses. Dalnavert houses antiques, not antiquated beliefs!
