The “Modern” Flammable Home Tour

We are open for tours! For groups of 10 or more, please call us at 780-998-1783 to book your tour slot.

Curious about combustibles in historic homes? Have we got a tour for you!

As folks attempted to modernize homes from the late 1800s into the 1950s and 60s, unfortunate fire-related mishaps and tragedies occurred.

Learn more about the “modern” products, building materials, and practices that led to the fire-related follies in homes of the time period.  Pre-registration is appreciated (15-20 participants maximum), please contact the museum by July 12. Tickets can be purchased on the day, if still available.
