RCMP Heritage Centre
The national museum of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, telling the 150-year story from the North-West Mounted Police to the modern force.
The Heritage Centre, designed by architect Arthur Erickson, stands next to the RCMP Academy. Its exhibits cover the Mounties' 1873 march west to open up the prairies, the Yukon Gold Rush, Arctic patrols and modern criminal investigation. The red serge uniforms, horse tack, police dogs and interactive criminal investigation displays are especially popular. Adult admission is about 15 Canadian dollars. In summer, you can join a paid academy tour to watch recruits in training and a sergeant major's parade (check the official website for the schedule). It's about a 10-minute drive from downtown.
Opening hours
About 10:00 am–5:00 pm (closed Mondays in winter)
