The Stones and Bones Museum in Sarnia is one of those rare places that completely surprises you the moment you step inside. From the street, it looks modest — but once you enter, it becomes a maze of natural history wonders, room after room packed with taxidermy, fossils, shells, stones and gems, and countless other treasures. Every turn reveals something new, strange, beautiful, or unexpected. It’s the kind of museum where you slow down, lean in, and keep saying, “Look at this!”
Our tour guide made the visit even better. They were knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and full of great stories, the kind of guide who brings the exhibits to life with fun facts and deep-cut trivia. You could feel their passion for natural history in every explanation.
There’s a bittersweet note to visiting right now: the museum is closing before the end of summer as they prepare to move into their new home inside the library. Everything will be packed into storage, and it may be years before they reopen. That makes a visit feel extra special — like you’re experiencing a beloved local institution in its final chapter.
Before leaving, we browsed the quirky little gift shop, full of unique items and natural-history‑themed souvenirs. Parking was simple with easy street parking right outside.
If you’re in Sarnia, don’t miss this wonderfully quirky, educational, and memorable spot. Highly recommended before it closes for the move.
They are only open Friday, Saturday & Sunday 11 Am - 5 pm. Last entry is 4pm. So plan your visit accordingly.
Their last day of operation is September 6th, 2026 - so you should go visit very soon, before they go into hibernation.

萨尼亚的“石头与骨骼博物馆”属于那种一走进去就会让人惊艳不已的罕见博物馆。从外面看,它显得很普通;可一旦进入内部,便仿佛置身于一个自然历史奇观的迷宫之中——各个展厅里摆满了标本、化石、贝壳、各种石头与宝石,还有数不清的其他珍奇物品。每转一个弯都能发现新奇、奇特、美丽或出人意料的事物。这是一个能让人不由自主放慢脚步细细观赏的博物馆。凑近一点,然后不断说:“快看看这个!”
我们的导游让这次参观体验更加出色。他们知识渊博、热情洋溢,还讲了许多精彩的故事——正是那种能用有趣的冷知识与深度轶闻让展品“活”起来的优秀导游。从他们的每一段讲解中,你都能感受到他们对自然历史的热忱。
不过现在来参观也带有一丝遗憾:由于即将迁至图书馆内新建的馆址,这座博物馆将在夏末闭馆。所有物品都将被收进仓库,恐怕要过好几年才会重新开放。正因如此,此时前去参观才显得尤为特别——仿佛正在见证这家深受当地人喜爱的场所走向它的最后篇章。
离开前,我们逛了逛那家风格别致的小礼品店,里面摆满了各式各样的独特商品以及以自然历史为主题的纪念品。店外的街道上停车也很方便。
如果你身处萨尼亚,千万别错过这个既别致有趣又富有教育意义、令人难忘的好去处。强烈建议在它因搬迁而关闭之前去参观。
他们仅在周五、周六和周日的上午11点至下午5点营业,最后入场时间为下午4点。因此请妥善安排您的行程。
他们的最后营业日期是2026年9月6日——所以您最好尽快前去参观,赶在它们进入“休眠期”之前。
