The National Doukhobour Heritage Village, located in Veregin, Saskatchewan, showcases the rich history and culture of the Doukhobor community through a collection of thirteen historical buildings, including the notable Verigin Prayer Home, which dates back to 1917. Officially opened in 1980, the village serves as a living museum that preserves artifacts, traditional practices, and the spirit of Doukhobor life, reflecting their migration from Russia and early settlement in Canada.
Visitors can experience traditional Doukhobor bread, participate in community events, and explore various exhibits that highlight the daily lives of pioneer Doukhobors. The site also features facilities such as a gift shop, picnic area, and ample parking, making it an inviting location for families and history enthusiasts alike.
