Welcome to the
Tupperville School Museum
circa 1869
Visit our collection of Acadian, Mi'kmaq and Settler artefacts
in one of Nova Scotia's last remaining one-room schoolhouses.
Exhibits
Learn about the long history of Acadian settlements along the Annapolis River, browse artefacts, and experience the daily life in a schoolhouse.
ACADIAN HERITAGE
In 1605, French colonists established the first permanent European settlement at Port Royal (Annapolis Royal). This area became known as Acadia by the descendants. For more information about these early settlers.
MI'KMAQ COLLECTION
​​We are pleased to have as part of our permanent collection, items made by a local Mi’kmaq
craftsman, Louis Jeremy. What is incredible about his work is that he made everything himself,
from tools to paints from local sources in nature.
THE SCHOOLHOUSE
As a former one-room schoolhouse, we have many items related to teaching including original students' desks, writing instruments, textbooks, and more.
The Settlers
The history of the Annapolis Valley in Nova Scotia is deeply intertwined with the migrations and
resettlements of the 18th century, particularly the arrival of the New England Planters and the
Loyalists.
