Alexander Graham Bell National Historic Site of Canada is located on Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia.  The site's 10 hectares overlook Baddeck Bay, on Bras d'Or Lake, and Beinn Bhreagh, Bell's summer home, where Bell pursued much of his scientific work.  The primary role of this national historic site is the commemoration of Bell’s inventive accomplishments. This is one of two such sites in Atlantic Canada.

The Alexander Graham Bell National Historic Site of Canada also functions as a center for the study of Bell’s scientific and humanitarian work as illustrated by a large collection of artifacts, documents, books, photographs, and copies of material from his personal archives. Resources include the exhibit building with administration wing, maintenance compound, and parking lot with washroom facilities, picnic tables, and a children’s area.
