York Sunbury Museum

York Sunbury Museum is a history museum in Fredericton housed in a former military building on Officers' Square. The museum displays more than 30,000 objects across multiple galleries that document how this region developed from ancient times to the present day.

The museum was founded in 1932 during the Great Depression. It moved to its current location in 1959 within a former military officers' residence on Queen Street.

The museum displays objects from Aboriginal, Loyalist, and Acadian communities that show how different groups shaped daily life in this region. Visitors see Victorian clothing and other belongings that reflect the traditions these communities brought and maintained.

Visitors can walk through multiple exhibition areas filled with objects from different periods and communities. The building sits on a public square in the downtown area, making it easy to reach on foot.

The museum preserves the Coleman Frog, a specimen that lived in Killarney Lake north of Fredericton more than a century ago. This unusual animal attraction stands out among the museum's collections and draws the curiosity of many visitors.
