Neubergthal Heritage Foundation (NHF)

Neubergthal, MB

Neubergthal is the best, most authentic location on the prairies to experience some of the realities of early permanent agricultural settlement.

Parks Canada designated Neubergthal as a National Historic Site after searching to find a place to show and tell stories of agriculture and early settlement on the prairies. The entire village was designated as having “historical and architectural national significance,” with many older original buildings and an authentic village and yard pattern.

The mission of Neubergthal Heritage Foundation (NHF) is to preserve aspects of this heritage and find appropriate and interesting ways to share and present this heritage.

Winkler Heritage Society

Winkler, Manitoba
