NORDEGG HERITAGE CENTER/BRAZEAU COLLERIES (NORDEGG, ALBERTA)

The museum focuses on the discovery and mining of coal deposits in the area. It also exhibits the vision of Martin Nordegg to develop a town that would not merely be another one of the thousands of dreary mining towns that dotted the American West from Alaska to Mexico.
