Tell Your Story
Through stewardship, research, and education, The Lorne Scots Museum continually strives to advance our understanding of the Regiments’ heritage in Peel, Dufferin, Halton, and Canada. It ensures the contributions of past generations are brought to life, inspiring an appreciation of our Regimental heritage throughout our communities.
The visitor experience will be our main focus, creating a journey designed to guide the patrons through impressive large-scale graphics alongside authentically presented artifacts. This self-directed experience through our galleries presents an uncomplicated display of the Regiments’ achievements. Conference rooms will be available to Founding Members of the museum providing a welcoming and unique experience for your community group or business’s next meeting.

A Labour of Love
The Lorne Scots is a very diverse Regiment. To ensure the Lorne Scots’ museum speaks passionately to all visitors, the museum will generate rotating and ever-evolving content, specifically designed to highlight the accomplishments of our Regiments’ rich heritage and diversity.
The Collection
The Lorne Scots Regimental Museum will showcase many unseen artifacts and archives, now scheduled for display in our newly designed gallery space. As caretakers of the collection, it is our duty to conserve and preserve all existing and future acquisitions. The museum continuously receives donations to our inventory and archives. If you have any items you wish to reside in the ongoing history of the Regiment, please contact us for more information on the donation process at museum@lornescots.ca.
