About the Museum

The Morse Museum and Cultural Centre is housed in a majestic 1912 schoolhouse, which was designated Municipal Heritage Property in 1981. The beautiful old school in Morse, Saskatchewan is once again a hub of activity and a focal point in our small town, continuing to serve the community as a learning institution.
* Visit a classroom as it was when the school opened in 1912.
* Imagine pioneer life as you visit the interior of a prairie homestead.
* View exhibits on the history of the Morse community and agricultural practices past and present.
* View a current show in our art gallery, have tea with us in our Victorian Parlour, or shop for the work of Saskatchewan craftspeople in our giftshop.

See our "School Days Gone By" exhibit in the Virtual Museum of Canada!
