St. Catharines Museum and Welland Canals Centre at Lock 3的点评
点评：Date of visit Thursday may 1st, 2025
History in Motion!
Our visit to the St. Catharines Museum & Welland Canals Centre was an absolute highlight of our trip to explore the area around the Welland Canal and the many communities that it runs through. This place offers an experience that’s equal parts historic, scenic, and totally unique.
The grounds are beautifully maintained, making it a peaceful and inviting spot to wander. But the true showstopper is the canal viewing platform, where we got front-row seats to watch massive ships navigate Lock 3 of the Welland Canal. Watching those vessels rise and lower is nothing short of mesmerizing—a real testament to human engineering and perseverance.
Inside the museum, the exhibits are thoughtfully curated, covering a wide range of topics, from regional heritage to the remarkable history of the canal itself. We especially loved the Lacrosse Hall of Fame, a hidden gem within the museum that celebrates the deep-rooted cultural and sporting significance of Canada’s national summer sport. It's interactive, educational, and gives the game the spotlight it deserves.
Whether you're a history enthusiast, a ship buff, or just looking for a unique stop in Niagara, this spot is a winner. We left feeling inspired, a little more informed, and already talking about a return visit. It was the perfect spot to start our Welland Canal History Road trip.
There is ample free parking on site, and admission to the museum is 100% donations. Pay what you can afford to give.

历史在流动！
我们参观了圣凯瑟琳斯博物馆和韦兰运河中心，这趟旅程绝对是精彩的，我们探索了韦兰运河周边地区及其流经的众多社区。这里不仅拥有悠久的历史，还有着优美的景色，而且独一无二。
博物馆的庭院维护得非常漂亮，是一个宁静宜人的漫步之地。但真正令人叹为观止的是运河观景台，我们坐在前排座位上，观看巨型船只航行于韦兰运河的3号船闸。看着这些船只起起伏伏，真是令人叹为观止——这真正体现了人类工程学和毅力。
博物馆内的展品经过精心策划，涵盖了从区域遗产到运河本身辉煌历史等各种主题。我们尤其喜欢长曲棍球名人堂，它是博物馆内一颗隐藏的瑰宝，它颂扬了加拿大国家夏季运动——这项运动根深蒂固的文化和体育意义。它互动性强，寓教于乐，让这项运动得到了应有的关注。
无论您是历史爱好者、船舶爱好者，还是只想在尼亚加拉寻找一处独特的休憩之所，这里都是您的不二之选。我们离开时倍感振奋，了解了更多知识，甚至已经开始谈论再次造访。这里是我们开启韦兰运河历史公路之旅的完美起点。
博物馆内有充足的免费停车位，门票100%采用捐款方式。请量力而行。
