Additional Information & Description

The Royal BC Museum in Victoria brings British Columbia’s natural and human history into one visit. Its collections connect the region’s people, plants, and animals, giving you a broad view of the province through objects, galleries, and exhibitions rather than a single chapter of its past.

Natural history in close detail

The Natural History of BC Galleries introduce the region through fossils, insects, birds, and animals. These collections let you look at British Columbia across different scales, from small specimens to the animals that inhabit its landscapes. They form a substantial part of a museum whose holdings span natural history, modern history, and First Nations history.

Town life and Indigenous languages

Walk through Old Town, a recreation of an early 20th-century British Columbia town, to explore a built setting from the province’s past. Jonathan Hunt House takes a different form: it is a ceremonial house and museum installation based on the home of Kwakwaka’wakw Chief Jonathan Hunt. In Our Living Languages, the focus shifts to the history and continued use of Indigenous languages, connecting the historical collections with living cultural practices.

Ancient Egypt: Obsessed with Life

Running through January 3, 2027, Ancient Egypt: Obsessed with Life explores Egyptian rituals, beliefs, and art. Coffins and grave goods appear alongside jewelry and everyday objects, bringing both ceremonial and daily life into view. Light, sound, and scent add a sensory dimension to the exhibition’s treatment of these beliefs.
