BRUDERHEIM Attractions & Events

Check out a piece of the Bruderheim Meteorite at the Bruderheim Fire Hall. The meteorite fell in 1960 and is THE largest recovered meteorite fall in Canada. The impact from the giant rock shook homes – it could be heard from over 5,000 sq km – about 700 fragments were found in the area. Plan a visit to Old Walker School, a four-room birch veneer schoolhouse built in 1908. The school was in operation until 1927, when it was destroyed by fire. A new school was built on the same site, which still stands today at the north end of Queen Street. Nowadays, the school is a museum and designated Provincial Historical Resource – to visit, book an appointment by calling 780-910-8810 or email bruderehimagsoc@shaw.ca.
