The Northwest Company Fur Post historic site is situated on 62 acres and includes a 10,500 sf Education Building. The fur trade story is experienced and interpreted through state of the art exhibits, hands-on activities and site explorations. The building sensitively recollects the meeting of Ojibwe and European cultures, blending forms, materials and paths naturally into the site.The interpretive theme, "Where two worlds meet", extends into the building forms, offering a variety of experiences for visitors of all ages. A strong natural presence of light, wood and organic materials extend from the site into and throughout the interpretive center.
