Much of Victoria's attraction stems from its unique collection of historic properties, visible reminders of Victoria's rich and fascinating past. Our heritage houses and neighbourhoods are symbols of stability in an ever-changing world.

The City of Victoria is committed to preservation of its heritage and encourages the owners of residential properties to maintain them through a grants program. Victoria Heritage Foundation (VHF) administers this program on the City's behalf. The VHF is dedicated to supporting the conservation of the city's heritage houses through house grants, education and public awareness.

We invite you to explore Victoria Heritage Foundation's website and hope that it will help you to enjoy the City's rich architectural, cultural and social history.
