canadian museum of immigration at pier 21印象

We were looking forward to visiting the museum on our trip to Halifax. Unfortunately the museum is closed until the spring for renovations. It is too bad that such an important museum must close all sections. An museum office across the street was able to help us do a geanological search and staff were helpful.

We were disappointed that the museum was being reburbished.so it was closed. The cruise ship we were on docked right beside it. Having been to Halifax before this was attraction I was hoping to see. Great info on outside.

At first I didn't want to go because it was the end of the day and I was tired. I am glad I went when I realized I had an aunt who came through Pier 21 in 1946! I had them research her arrival and they printed out her entry. Now we have a keepsake of her entry!! It was a really need discovery. So if you think that you don't have anyone who came through Pier 21, you never know what might come up in your memory as you tour the museum!

Went with some of my family to see where it all began. Great museum set up just how immigration was when they came! We were able to find both my parents boats, and located my Dad's family names on the passenger lists. Such a neat experience.

The Immigration Museum at pier 21 has a vast database that files videos, photos, or records of those that immigrated to Canada through this area. The area was not interesting to me, but if you have a relative that immigrated here I would recommend it.

I travelled to Pier 21 during the summer of 2013 to visit the Immigration Museum as a tribute to a family member. I didn't know what to expect but I was sure I wanted to stand at the Pier and view the scene where so many immigrants came to North America. The tour was enhanced by stories of the group. The displays were typical of such a museum. As fate would have it, there was a typo so when I went to view the manifest it took some time but the engaging staff persevered and we found my beloved family member who arrived on ship from Europe. I was so inspired, I submitted digital info for exhibition including a landing card and photos. As I learned, she was one of a million. But I already knew that. Enjoy your visit.

I love the idea of Pier 21, however, only after I paid admission was I allowed to try to look up my grandparents. However, at that point I found out that they only had information on people who immigrated to Canada before 1940. I was extremely disappointed to find this out after I paid.

I entered the museum with great anticipation and was captivated by the displays, photos and artifacts shared. Everything from the immigrant's stories to the simulated train trip allowed me an opportunity to experience the journey of my ancestors. Finding my grandfather's name in the archives was amazing! To have seen and walked the pier he landed at over 100 years ago was a humbling experience. Thank you for presenting this incredible historic site!

Not impressed at all. It's not what I would call a museum. They claim it is being re-vamped for 2015. Very expensive.

This is the Ellis Island of Canada. The museum is in the process of reorganization, but we got in the week before it's temporary closing for renovation. There is much to see here, but what was most moving to me was the film of recent immigrants. I would love to go back sometime when the renovation is complete.
