Moncton Museum, Local history museum in Moncton, Canada.

Resurgo Place, at 20 Mountain Road, is a 31,000-square-foot complex that reopened on August 8, 2014, housing the Moncton Museum, the Transportation Discovery Centre and the main visitor information centre. Its indoor public area was built to keep the sandstone façade of the former City Hall (1916). The Free Meeting House (1821) and its cemetery stand adjacent.

The Moncton Museum opened in 1974, with part of the former Moncton City Hall facade incorporated into its building. It closed temporarily in 2012 for expansion work costing nearly 10 million dollars, and reopened in 2014 as Resurgo Place, a 31,000-square-foot complex. Its heritage collection covers Moncton's history from the Mi'kmaq era through the Acadian deportation to shipbuilding, the railway and aviation.

The museum tells the story of how Moncton grew from a small settlement into a regional center. Transportation and trade played key roles in shaping the community's identity.

Plan to spend a few hours exploring the main exhibitions and trying the interactive displays. The Resource Centre offers access to historical documents and genealogical records on specific days for visitors researching local family history and regional archives.

A Transportation Discovery Centre within the building features hands-on activities exploring how different modes of transport shaped the region's growth. This section highlights the practical role that railways and shipping played in turning Moncton into a major regional hub.
