Whitchurch-Stouffville Museum & Community Centre

The idea for the Whitchurch-Stouffville Museum began (WSM) in 1969 as a civic-minded project by a group of local residents with a passion for Canadian history and a love of their town.   Since 1971, the site has grown from the original museum building – the Bogarttown School House (1857) – and now includes the Vandorf Public School (1870), the Log Cabin (c. 1850), a farmhouse built by James Brown (c. 1860), an historic barn, and an outhouse.  In 2012, the WSM welcomed the addition of a modern facility that blends the old with the new.   In additional to rental spaces, this new facility includes a Research Room, Exhibition Galleries, and Discovery Room for young families.  The Whitchurch-Stouffville Museum also houses and preserves over 20,000 artifacts in its collection!  Here you can experience the local lifestyle of the 1800s combined with modern amenities.
