The Mennonite Story multi-media interpretive centre is a must for anyone interested in learning more about Mennonites. Take a self-guided journey beginning with a 13 minute video entitled, ‘The Old Order’. Learn about the Old Order Mennonites whose buggies you may pass on your way here. Browse through an extensive exhibit that describes the early beginnings of the Mennonites in Europe: how they grew out of the 16th century Protestant Reformation and why they were hunted down and persecuted. Step into a replica of an Old Order meetinghouse. Then see informative photos, artifacts and displays that describe the history, culture and religion of the Mennonites – in our area and around the world!
