This museum is on the site of the Battle of Lundy’s Lane, the historic War of 1812 battle that happened within the current city limits. At the museum, you’ll learn about the early settlement and tourism of Niagara Falls.

See artifacts and displays from the War of 1812. The home has a Victorian parlor and period kitchen. Toys and dolls are also on display.  Outside, to the right of the entrance to the Museum stands a stone memorial fountain commemorating Queen Victoria’s reign of over 64 years, erected by her loyal subjects of Stamford Township.

The fountain, constructed in 1901 of 82 pieces of limestone, one for each year of the late Queen’s life, provided a constant source of fresh running water for humans, horses and dogs from its three separate levels. The fountain is non-operative at present.

This Historical Museum is at 5810 Ferry Street.
