Living history
Step across the threshold of one of the many military forts standing strong across the province and see for yourself how history comes alive in Ontario. Marvel at the precision and pageantry of military drills and maneuvers at Fort Henry. Witness a full-fledged battle re-enactment from the War of 1812 at Fort York.

Experience the joys and the hardships of the early settlers. Join in a 19th century christening or a wedding at Upper Canada Village in Morrisburg. Escape back in time to the clippity-clop of hooves as you take a horse and buggy ride through Black Creek Pioneer Village. Learn how settlers preserved their fall harvest bounty at Backus Heritage Village in Port Rowan. Feel your mouth water, as you observe 19th century baking in the summer kitchen of Canada's oldest stone house west of Toronto - Ermatinger Stone house in Sault Ste. Marie. From quilting to sausage making, follow the month-by-month routines of Canada's Mennonite settlers at Joseph Schneider Haus in Kitchener.

Tour the grand mansions of Ontario's 19th century rich and famous, including the home of Canada's first prime minister, Sir John A. MacDonald. Then take a voyage through a different kind of history - the amazing story behind Ontario's waterway engineering feats, including the Hydraulic Lift Lock on the Trent-Severn Waterway and the flight locks that connect the Rideau Canal to the Ottawa River.

Get your hands dirty during the Fall Weekend Dig at the LaFleur Homestead and learn a thing or two about unique history along the way.
