Begin your journey to Fort Malden National Historic Site of Canada
Welcome to Fort Malden NHS. As you enter our front gates, you will see the original Fort Malden Museum, built in 1939.

Visitor Centre, 1939 Constructed in "old French chateau" style, this building was the original Fort Malden museum when the fort became a National Historic Park in 1939. It now contains the Fort Malden Gift Shop.

Military Pensioner's Cottage, circa 1851 (Restoration) After the regulars left the fort, they were replaced by enrolled pensioners. These men and their families were settled on the military reserve around the fort, where 86 cottages were constructed to house them.

Museum, circa 1861 Originally a laundry and baking facility for the asylum established in 1859. After the asylum closed, the structure became a planing mill and was eventually converted into a private family residence in 1918. The Museum was acquired in 1946. The building now contains Fort Malden's exhibits.

Brick Barrack, circa 1819 (Restoration) The last remaining building from those constructed after the reoccupation of Fort Malden by the British. This single story barrack has three rooms and was designed to accommodate 66 soldiers. In the 1840s, the barrack was converted into the fort's hospital and a kitchen was added to its southeast corner.
