When people think of the town of Hanna, Alberta, many go right to rock band Nickelback — but in the same area, there is a vast museum to check out, too.

The Hanna Pioneer Museum and Village is nestled on Pioneer Trail and features an entire block of historic buildings filled with antiques and turn-of-the-century artifacts.

Its Tripadvisor page touts “hundreds of thousands of interesting artifacts on display,” so we bet you could spend a good chunk of time here and find something that will pique your interest.
