New Denmark Memorial Museum

New Denmark, the oldest Danish settlement in Canada, is a small rural community that owes its name to the Danish immigrants who settled the region in 1872. Although its population is more diversified than it was at that time, the Danish language can still be heard and many people still proudly display their roots.The New Denmark Memorial Museum has a collection made up of portraits, farm machinery, small tools, china, books and numerous artefacts that belonged to the local Danish settlers.
