Serbian Heritage Museum

In 1975, the idea of a Serbian Museum was initiated.  The Serbian Heritage Women's Society undertook the first collection of artifacts and archival materials from the Serbian community.  In 1976, they displayed at the Hiram Walker Historical Museum, now Windsor's Community Museum, for four months.  The exhibit generated much interest among the general public and Serbian community.  A permanent museum then became the new goal for the Serbian Heritage Women's Society.

Windsor's Community Museum has a wide array of collections documenting the rich history of Windsor and Essex County. Researchers should contact the Museum in advance to book an appointment. An update of this site will be available soon.
