Niagara Falls History Museum

The Niagara Falls History Museum celebrates the history of the City of Niagara Falls and commemorates the Battle of Lundy’s Lane, a pivotal battle in the War of 1812 which halted the American advance into Upper Canada and ensured the survival of Canada as a sovereign nation. To support the museum’s expanded mandate as a national cultural institution, Moriyama Teshima Architects led a heritage restoration of the existing museum building, the 1874 Old Stamford Town Hall, and designed a 10,000 SF expansion that more than doubled the museum’s size, creating much-needed new exhibition and archival spaces.
