History and Heritage

Live presentations by the staff of the Moncton Museum at Bore Park just prior to the arrival of the tidal bore will educate you about this exciting natural phenomenon and to hear stories about the diverse and rich history of this region. Presentations are offered daily throughout July and August, weather permitting. Check for tidal bore times!

Historic Walking Tour brochures are available at Visitor Information Centres in Moncton and will help you acquaint yourself with some of Moncton’s oldest buildings and landmarks.
