Overview

Built in 1980, the Queens County Museum was designed to represent a large warehouse from Liverpool’s Colonial days to house the history of this area and to tell the stories of years gone by. The Queens County Museum, as part of the Queens County Museum Heritage Complex, features exhibits on the Mi’kmaq, early medicine, marine history, wartime memorabilia, and more.

Discover exhibits offering information and stories, beginning with the Mi’kmaq people, the arrival of French influence that began in 1604, to the New England Planters in 1759. Over the years, the people of Queens County have chronicled the area’s rich history and its inherent link to the sea and the forest.

Visit us to get your Privateer on as you step aboard the replica deck of our famous Privateer ship, the “Liverpool Packet” and learn why Liverpool was known as the “Port of the Privateers”.  You can even earn your Letter Marque that makes you an official Privateer!

The Museum gift shop offers a variety of items including giftware, souvenirs, stones & crystals, publications unique to Queens County, jewelry, and much more.
