The first transatlantic cable was landed in Heart's Content Newfoundland on July 27, 1866. The fascinating museum, commemorating the role of the town in transatlantic communication, brings many visitors to the town.  

The Cable Station Provincial Historic Site houses a visitor interpretation center. Equipment displays illustrate the important role Heart's Content played in Transatlantic Communication for over 100 years. The centre boasts an intriguing cable operating room in pristine condition, and houses a series of informational panels on the history of telecommunications.

A replica of the original Victorian cable office and details of the problems encountered during the laying of the first telegraph lines are two of the most interesting displays.

Across the street from the Cable Museum is an area with park benches and a History Board displaying the history of Hearts Content Newfoundland. The board was donated to the town by the Johnson Family Foundation during the Come Home Year Celebrations held in 1997.
