Canadiana Village, Open-air museum in Rawdon, Canada

Canadiana Village contains over 40 historical buildings from the 19th century, including a church, general store, mill, and residential homes across its grounds.

The museum originated from Earle Moore's initiative in 1946 with a single building relocation, expanding to preserve numerous structures from demolition across Quebec.

The collection includes original furnishings and artifacts that represent daily activities of Quebec settlers, from medical instruments to farming equipment.

The museum opens for special events throughout the year, featuring demonstrations of traditional activities such as wool spinning and bread baking.

A covered bridge from 1888 and a relocated graveyard with tombstones from St. Patrick's Roman Catholic Church form part of the historical landscape.
