The Sooke Region Museum explores the cultural and natural heritage of the region from East Sooke to Port Renfrew, including the municipality of Sooke and unincorporated communities of Otter Point, Shirley and Jordan River on the lands of the T’Sou-ke, Pacheedaht, and Scia’new people. In addition, we are the regional Visitor Centre, providing maps, community information, and details on local attractions, businesses and events. We also have local artisan work and an extensive selection of books about local culture and heritage in our gift shop.
Visit indoor exhibits of Indigenous basketry and settler history featuring mining, forestry, maritime exhibits, as well as the popular All Sooke Day film. Outdoor exhibits include the Forestry Path, Servants Quarters, the Saga of the Lord Western and the Lighthouse from Triangle Island. Moss Cottage, one of the oldest buildings in Sooke is open for special events, like the weekly Sooke Night Market all summer long.
