The Amherstburg Freedom Museum, previously known as 'the North American Black Historical Museum', is located in Amherstburg, Ontario, Canada. It is a community-based, non-profit museum that tells the story of African Canadians' history and contributions. Founded in 1975 by local residents of Amherstburg, the museum preserves and presents artifacts that educate and inspire.

The location of the Museum is key; Amherstburg meant freedom, as the Canadian destination for many Freedom Seekers escaping enslavement in the United States. Also included in the museum complex are Nazrey African Methodist Episcopal Church - national historic site and stop on the Underground Railroad, and the Taylor Log Cabin - home of George Taylor a formerly enslaved man and his family.

Founded by Betty and Melvin "Mac" Simpson, the museum was officially incorporated in 1975.It was their vision to promote the rich heritage of African Canadians, many of whose ancestors had come as refugees from enslavement in the United States. In 2015, the North American Black Historical Museum celebrated its 40th anniversary, and changed its name to the Amherstburg Freedom Museum, to emphasize its connection to people seeking freedom.
