Pier 21 was an ocean liner terminal and immigration shed from 1928 to 1971 in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. Nearly one million immigrants came to Canada through Pier 21, and it is the last surviving seaport immigration facility in Canada. The facility is often compared to the landmark American immigration gateway Ellis Island. The former immigration facility is now occupied by the Canadian Museum of Immigration, the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design as well as various retail and studio tenants.

  • Pier 21, een voormalige terminal voor oceaanlijners, is Canada's nationaal museum voor immigratie in Halifax (Nova Scotia). Het fungeerde van 1928 tot en met 1971 als een oceaanlijnerterminal en immigratieloods en werd een museum in 1999. Pier 21 is de laatste overgebleven immigratieloods aan de kust van Canada. De faciliteit wordt vaak vergeleken met Ellis Island in New York. In 1997 werd het aangewezen als National Historic Site of Canada en het werd officieel een nationaal museum in 2011. (nl)
