History

The Nanton Lancaster Society was formed following the Town of Nanton’s suggestion in the fall of 1985 that perhaps a group could be formed to, “take care of the Bomber” which had been on outside display for twenty-five years. At this time virtually no one had been in the aircraft since it had arrived and very little was known, in Nanton, about the Lancaster or the history associated with it.

Construction

Phase I of the expansion was completed in 2007. A new 14,400 square foot structure was erected over the existing restoration shop and storage area and a 40’x70′ mezzanine was included. This is being used for storage purposes. Phase I was a “bare-bones” building. The support of the Government of Alberta through the Alberta Lottery Fund [albertalotteryfund.ca] made it possible for the museum to complete phase I of a major expansion project during 2007.
