Here’s some hands-on fun! Feel the power of falling water to understand how it turned wheels and turbines in old Nova Scotian industries. Try to pump enough to move the wheels that power grindstones, a foundry bellows, a saw blade, or a carding machine. Interactive devices in this exhibit turn your energy into water power. It’s lots of fun and you can give it all you’ve got! Waterpower explores the past importance of harnessing the water of Nova Scotia’s many rivers and streams to power machines to produce flour, lumber, cloth, leather, iron and other goods.
