Serbian Heritage Museum in Windsor Ontario celebrates 33 years of service this year. The museum is of great importance to Serbian people in diaspora because it is a unique place where numerous artifacts that represent the memories of lives of Serbian people in Canada, Serbian culture, as well as customs can be found. In the biggest Serbian museum outside of Serbian borders one can find national costumes, old photographs, rare books, musical instruments, newspapers, and various documents. According to Julka Vlajić, the board member of the Serbian Heritage Museum in Canada, "the oldest exhibit in the museum is the 19th century postage stamp from the reign of King Milan and bolero jacket from 1889."
