Open seasonally; generally mid-May through early September. Special events or group bookings taken outside of these times. Originally built as a 12-room schoolhouse in 1930, now preserved as a Heritage School Building and recognized as a Provincial Historic Resource. Artisan Gift Shop and the Willow Café are located inside! Shop for Badlands souvenirs and browse our unique items handmade locally. Pick up lunch and treats at the Café!
We visited the Badlands area in September and stopped at the East Coulee School Museum one morning. The building is beautifully kept with lovely grounds, and the inside was a treat as well. We were greeted by the lady who runs the museum when we entered, and she gave us a warm welcome and quite a bit of information about the school and its past in the coal mining era of Southern Alberta. Afterward, we wandered freely though the various exhibits on the lives of the children, the women who taught them (including a priceless list of the rules governing the teachers’ lives) and a room devoted to the home lives of the pupils and their parents. Everything was well presented and interesting, and the museum also features a small cafe with homemade food for luncheons. All in all this is a very worthwhile museum to visit if you are interested in the history of the area from the early 20th century.

New interactive dinosaur museum in Drumheller. Had the best time at this Museum with the kids. It's a must do.....
This museum isn't large but it is mighty! Automatronic dinosaurs bring the past to life and interactive stations make for unique hands-on experiences for the under 10 crowd. Beautiful gift shop with lots to choose from (you can actually purchase rocks and fossils at all price points, even fossil art fit for even the most prestigious homes).
