Roedde House Museum Attractions
The Roedde House Museum is an excellent example of what Vancouver was like before the rapid development which took place in the 1950’s. The Museum is set within an 1893 Queen Anne Style late-Victorian mansion, which has been preserved to show what life for the well-off middle classes was like in the early days of Vancouver.

Roedde House Museum Tours
The Museum is open for tours during limited hours throughout the year, therefore please check directly with the Museum to ensure that it’s open on the day you would like to visit. The tour takes you around the house where you’ll find numerous period antiques, and outside the gardens have been landscaped in period styles too.
Sunday Tea and Tour
On Sundays only, the admission price is a worthwhile extra dollar because not only are you given the usual tour of the Museum, you also get to enjoy tea and cookies in the garden!
