The Old Hastings Mill Store Museum

History (歷史)

西元前1929年卑詩省婦女聽說位於Dunlevy街尾老黑斯廷斯(Hastings)鋸木工廠,為了將來道路規劃發展,將被拆除摧毀.

In 1929 the Native Daughters of B.C., Post No.l, heard that the Old Hastings Mill Sawmill, situated at the foot of Dunlevy Street (two blocks east of Main Street) was to be demolished, making way for future development.

當時一個有影響力的委員會成立了,委員會與工廠擁有者艾利克‧漢伯交涉後,黑斯廷斯(Hastings)工廠得以保存下來,並搬移至Alma路尾. 艾利克‧漢伯先生亦無任何附加條件移交商店大樓;不久之後以從他手中獲得工場所有權, 一直至今.

A strong committee was formed who approached the Hon. Eric Hamber, who was the owner of the Mill, to save the Hastings Mill Store and have it moved to the foot of Alma Road. Mr. Hamber heartily agreed with the plans and turned over the old store building without any "strings" attached. Proof of ownership was later obtained from Mr. Hamber and is now in safe-keeping.

The Hastings Mill in its heyday in the 1890s.

(90年代全盛期的黑斯廷斯工廠)

由於當時開拓者與熱心人民慷慨的解囊,能有足夠的經費,讓建築物透過駁船運載的方式,搬移至現今的位址,並在1932年1月成為官方指定的一座博物館

Due to the generosity of the pioneers and other interested citizens, enough money was raised to move the building by barge to its present site and the building was officially designated as a museum in January 1932.

起初為了紀念這些開拓者,命名為”開拓者博物館” (Pioneer Museum), 但”老黑斯廷斯工廠商店博物館” (The Old Hastings Mill Store Museum)仍時常使用,導致”開拓者博物館”稱呼逐漸被淡忘消失.

Originally the building was called the, in memory of the pioneers, but the name "The Old Hastings Mill Store Museum" was constantly used and "Pioneer Museum" gradually faded away. The Parks Board leased the museum the small area of ground on which the building stands.

這棟建築物建於1865, 1886年在城市被破壞時,是於大火下最後存留下來的建築. 在大火期間,於1886年6月13日,被使用為醫院與陳屍場所. 因此這棟建築在溫哥華歷史中,扮演非常重要的一部分.

The building was built in 1865 and was the last remaining building left after the fire of 1886, when the city was destroyed. On the day of the fire, June 13 1886, the building was used as a hospital and morgue, therefore, this building plays a very important part in the history of Vancouver.

這棟建築物存放了很多當時開拓者的手工藝品,並收集了大量的原住民藝術品.建築物的主要樓層為博物館,上一層樓為會議室與休息室,下一層樓為管理者區

The building houses many artifacts from pioneer days and a large collection of Native artifacts. The main floor of the building is the Museum, the upper floor is a meeting room and lounge. The lower floor is the caretakers' suite.

博物觀歡迎世界各地的參觀者,並提供學校學生或團體博物館參觀嚮導,進行解說.

The museum receives visitors from all over the world and provides conducted tours for school children and other interested groups. The building is wheelchair accessible.
