PROVINCIAL HERITAGE PLACE
Step into a real Acadian time with the interpreters as they go about their chores in period buildings; view fields and farmyards stocked with animals that the early Acadians raised to support themselves. The atmosphere and authenticity of the site's historical reconstruction assure you of memorable moments in a pastoral setting, evoking the living conditions of the Acadians.
This attraction has won a number of prestigious awards, including the Phoenix Award for its authentic character. It brings to life the ancestral customs and traditional trades of Acadians from 1770 to 1949.
The Village Historique Acadien is also the only Canadian site amongst a list of 10 “Living History Sites to Love” chosen by Grandparents.com. The website suggests activities grandparents can do with their grandchildren.
