Description du lieu patrimonial
Kipling and District Museum is a Municipal Heritage Property located within the Town of Kipling at 201 4th Street. The property features a complex of six wood-frame buildings and two non-contributing buildings that form the core of the community’s museum.
Valeur patrimoniale
The heritage value of the Kipling and District Museum lies in its representation of historic life in the area. The property features a complex of historical buildings that has been used by the town as a museum since 1982. The buildings represent the types of structures that existed in the area during the community’s early years, and have been relocated or reconstructed on the site to preserve and exhibit important aspects of the town’s social and cultural history. The building types exhibited in the complex include a farmhouse, church, school, blacksmith’s shop, dentist’s office, and a gas station.
The heritage value of the property also lies in its spatial arrangement. The complex is designed to resemble a historic streetscape, with buildings arranged in two rows facing each other. The museum is situated on a large open space which facilitates the property’s evolving nature and will allow for the addition of more structures as they are acquired.
