Historic Sites of Manitoba: Manitoba City School Houses (215-219 Fuller Avenue, Manitou, Municipality of Pembina)

This pair of adjacent homes on Fuller Avenue in Manitou were originally built around 1883 for use as a schoolhouse in the village of Manitoba City. When that community was bypassed by the railway, the schoolhouse was moved to Manitou in 1885 and divided into two parts.
