Reynolds-Alberta Museum
Description
A dynamic exploration of our mechanical heritage. Did you know that the Reynolds-Alberta Museum has an internationally acclaimed restoration and conservation shop, an award-winning Resource Centre and is one of only three fly-in museums in Canada? The Reynolds-Alberta Museum has also been the recipient of four Premier’s Awards of Excellence for past exhibitions.
For more than 20 years, the Reynolds-Alberta Museum, has celebrated the machines in the transportation, aviation, industrial and agriculture industries that built Alberta into the province that it is today. The museum interprets the impact of technological change in those industries from the 1890s to the present.
The Reynolds-Alberta Museum is part of a network of provincially owned and operated historic sites, interpretive centres and museums and is supported by the Friends of the Reynolds-Alberta Museum Society.

It’s McLaughlin Monday! We continue the behind-the-scenes look as we prepare for our next feature exhibition, The McLaughlin Story. The work is full of surprises! When Artifact Services Technician, Jason Harris, removed the wheels from the 1932 McLaughlin-Buick 32-8-66C Convertible Coupe, he discovered that the axel on the rear drivers-side wheel was broken. #McLaughlinStory #McLaughlinMonday
