Description:
|
Instituted in 1968 to house materials conserving the heritage of the Rockies, this museum is now one of Banff's best and most comprehensive. With extensive collections of literature and art, the Whyte Museum houses thousands of items, including journals, oral histories, photographs, and artifacts relating to mountain climbing and exploration in general. The exhibitions provide a fascinating insight into the history of the region, as do the log structures on the grounds. Art displays change regularly, and the archives are open for public research and interest. |
