The MacNaught History Centre and Archives at 75 Spring Street is at the heart of Summerside’s celebration of heritage in documents and monuments. It is a gateway to discovering family connections and Island ancestors and is open year round to local residents and visitors.

Fans of history are able to travel back in time courtesy of friendly staff guiding you through a selection of PEI newspapers on microfilm, transcribed census and gravestone records, and other valuable resources. The facility has comfortable reading and microfilm rooms and a reference library of published and unpublished community histories and genealogies, all available free of charge.
