AGB National Historic Site

In the 1950’s, daughters Elsie Grosvenor and Marian Fairchild donated more than 8000 artifacts to the people of Canada for a museum dedicated to their parents, to be built in Baddeck, N.S. The Alexander Graham Bell National Historic Site was opened in August 1956.

Today, it is the only museum in the world dedicated to Bell’s entire life. Operated by Parks Canada, it houses the original HD-4, a full-scale reproduction and a full-size Silver Dart replica.
