As long ago as 5,000 B.C., native people camped at this site where they hunted and fished along Lake Champlain. In 1609, Samuel de Champlain toured the Lake with Indian guides and, by 1741, a French settlement was established here to support the soldiers at Fort St. Frederic across the Lake. Prehistoric tools, weapons, pottery, jewelry, trade goods and other artifacts are included in the museum's exhibit. Additional exhibits interpret the historic building which houses the museum.
