Heritage and Archives
In 2001, Victoria County celebrated its one hundredth and fiftieth anniversary. Prior to 1851, the area which is now defined as Victoria County was part of Cape Breton County. The county was officially proclaimed in April of 1851, and as Queen Victoria was ruling Britain, it was deemed appropriate to name the newly formed county in her honour.
