Welcome
...to the Yellowknife Historical Society website! Our mandate is to preserve the heritage of Yellowknife and to promote the development of sites and exhibits that will further the understanding and appreciation of the community's rich and fascinating history, while contributing to the tourism and economic potential of the North.
The Yellowknife Historical Museum is located by the Giant Mine Site / Boat Launch. If you'd like to rent this space check our "Renting the Museum" page.
The museum is located on Chief Drygeese Territory, the traditional territory of the Wiìliìdeh Yellowknives Dene, and home of the North Slave Métis. We respectfully acknowledge our presence on their land around Yellowknife.
