Visit our galleries to explore over a century of RCMP history, from the formation of the North-West Mounted Police in 1873, to the modern-day Mountie. Guests of the RCMP Heritage Centre can experience both the historical and modern-day stories of the RCMP through a variety of traditional and informative exhibits, virtual and augmented reality experiences, and live events.
The Centre is located on RCMP Academy, Depot Division land, where Mounties have trained since 1885. The Heritage Centre is operated by a non-profit organization, and supported by the RCMP’s Historical Collections Unit.
With excitement building around the 150th anniversary of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, and supported by a mandate to commemorate this significant part of Canadian history, the RCMP Heritage Centre is advancing plans to become Canada’s newest national museum.
Museums serve a civic purpose. In becoming Canada’s newest national museum, the RCMP Heritage Centre will engage Canadians in exploring the best ways to honour the past with authenticity and to tell even the most difficult stories with dignity and compassion.
There are many proud chapters in the RCMP story, and others that are intensely painful. By acknowledging the struggles of the past, the Museum will offer the chance for visitors to reflect, hear from diverse perspectives, and learn about Canada’s history and its future.
We acknowledge that the land on which we gather, and where the RCMP Heritage Centre is located is Treaty 4 territory, which is the traditional territory of the Anihšinābēk, Nêhiyawak, Dakota, Lakota, and Nakota Peoples, and the original home of the Métis Nation. We recognize and acknowledge their culture and contributions.

The RCMP Heritage Centre is hosting “Love in a Dangerous Time”: Canada’s LGBT Purge, a compelling pop-up exhibition that sheds light on a painful chapter in Canada’s history while celebrating the resilience and courage of those who fought for justice. From the 1950s to the 1990s, the Government of Canada systematically investigated, harassed, and expelled 2SLGBTQI+ members of the Canadian Armed Forces, RCMP, and federal public service in what became known as the LGBT Purge. Thousands of careers and lives were upended, yet courageous individuals led political and legal efforts to challenge these injustices and demand change. Access to Love in a Dangerous Time is included with a general admission ticket to the Heritage Centre galleries. Individuals who identify as Survivors of the LGBT Purge are invited to view the exhibit for no cost.

Once again, the RCMP Heritage Centre with our partners, will welcome students for our annual week of learning and awareness for Red Dress Day — the National Day of Awareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and Two-Spirit People (MMIWG2S).
This day is a powerful call to action and remembrance. Across the country, red dresses are displayed in public spaces as symbols of the lives lost — a visual reminder of the violence, injustice, and systemic issues that continue to disproportionately affect Indigenous communities.
We are honoured to host local students at the Centre for the week of May 5, creating space for learning, reflection, and meaningful dialogue. Through education and awareness, we move toward truth, healing, and reconciliation.
🟥 We remember. We raise our voices. We commit to action. 🟥
