In honour of Her late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, 1926-2022, we present here a virtual exhibit recalling five Royal Visits to Nova Scotia.

Nova Scotians have a long-standing admiration and affection for Queen Elizabeth and her husband, Prince Philip.

The documents and tour memorabilia presented in this virtual exhibit showcase the protocol requirements and attention to detail that are part of every Royal Tour. The selection of digitized photographs, on the other hand, is a vivid reminder that every time the Queen visited Nova Scotia, even in this very modern 21st century, we welcomed her with pleasure and respect — and even a bit of excitement still — thereby honouring the links that have bound our land to her’s for over three centuries.
