Daly House Museum, Victorian mansion museum in Brandon, Canada.
The Daly House Museum is a Victorian residence in Brandon with four floors displaying objects and documents from local history. Each floor contains period rooms with furniture and personal items that show how residents lived and worked.
The house was built in 1882 for Thomas Mayne Daly, one of Brandon's early mayors. It later served as a children's residence from 1930 until 1972, when it became a museum.
The rooms inside reveal how people lived during the Victorian era through furnished spaces like a parlor and kitchen. A replica general store shows how local shopping and commerce worked in the early 1900s.
The museum opens on select days with a midday break, so check ahead before visiting to plan your time wisely. The rooms spread across multiple floors, so allow time to move through each level and see the displays.
The grounds feature century-old elm trees and a Victorian garden tended by local volunteers. A dedicated research center onsite assists with local history investigations and archival work.
