The Yellowknife Historical Society, in the Northwest Territories, Canada, was first formed in 2002 as the NWT Mining Heritage Society and began planning for the creation of a mining museum for Yellowknife and the Northwest Territories and Nunavut as a whole. In 2017, the society was renamed the Yellowknife Historical Society to broaden its mandate to create a community museum for Yellowknife that would include all cultural aspects of the city's history.[1]
The Museum is affiliated with: CMA, CHIN, and Virtual Museum of Canada.
