A major attraction in the Conception Bay North area is helping people harken back to a simpler time.
The Victoria Heritage Village, located on the site of Newfoundland’s only WWII POW camp, has opened to visitors for the first time since the pandemic began, and volunteer Vince Butt says they have two new buildings that they hope to have finished this summer.
They have a one-room schoolhouse which they are hoping to have finished soon, while a barbershop was completed last year.
They also have a fire hall complete with a vintage pumper. All the buildings on-site offer a sense of what life was like in the not-too-distant past in a Newfoundland outport. They also have a resident goat and Newfoundland Pony.
