Museum of Dufferin

The Museum’s artifact collection was officially donated to the County in 1988 and relocated to the current facility by 1994. The MoD facility was purpose-built as a museum in the style of an Ontario bank-barn, reflecting the rural and agricultural heritage of the region. Just like a traditional barn-raising bee, the community came together to complete the project.

Since opening, community donations and support have helped diversify the MoD’s collection and offerings. We pride ourselves on offering a welcoming, unique, and enriching environment for our visitors. Each year, the MoD offers an eclectic variety of experiences: exhibitions, events, programs, and tours. Our visitors, members, donors, partners and volunteers are the heart of MoD!
