Grande Prairie Museum And Pioneer Village

Today, we went to visit the Pioneer Village again. Early this year it was closed for repairs. Yea it was open today.

You'll notice that most of the buildings have dates in the early 1900's. This is not unusual since this part of the country is not a century old yet. The first people in this area arrived in the early 1900's .As a matter of fact Grande Prairie was first incorporated as a village in 1911 and a town in 1919. They have come a long way since then and when you drive around the city it looks like it has been here for hundreds of years.

We hope you enjoy the pictures of the Pioneer Village.
