There is so much history here in Halifax, and I recommend the Maritime Museum on Halifax’s waterfront for well-designed exhibits providing a deep understanding of how tragedy struck this fabled harbor often. Especially poignant was the Titanic exhibit complete with artifacts from that doomed vessel.
We did not have time to visit the cemeteries where many victims of the disaster are laid to rest, but it would be an interesting sidebar to history to do so.
