Cumberland Heritage Village Museum is located 30 minutes east of downtown Ottawa and 10 minutes away from Rockland.  The Museum consists of 28 buildings on 25 hectares in the village of Cumberland. The Cumberland Heritage Village Museum explores village and rural life in the Lower Ottawa Valley between 1890 and 1930.

On site you will find seven houses and six buildings depicting residential and agricultural architecture and public buildings such as a one-room schoolhouse, a train station, a blacksmith shop, a Fire Hall housing a 1938 fire engine, the oldest Imperial Gas Station in Canada, and a functioning Sawmill.  Costumed interpreters recreate what rural life was like in the early depression era, with activities for the kids, such as a wagon ride, and farm animals.
