Welcome to the National Canal Museum’s History’s Mysteries, an engaging educational experience designed to immerse your students in historical detective work! Students will work as junior detectives, engaging with this interactive form, unraveling real-life mysteries like The Case of the Unknown Canaller. Following the clues, they’ll piece together the past using physical materials provided in the package, such as photographs, maps, and historical documents. These hands-on activities are paired with digital challenges to enhance critical thinking and problem-solving skills.

If you’re ready to bring history to life for your class, purchase the full package and receive in-class materials and password access to our mysteries. For more information, contact our education manager at education@nulldelawareandlehigh.org.

Explore the cases below if you already have your password and junior detective packets!
