More About Us
Founded in 1995, our museum tells the story of Gananoque’s varied history, from glaciers and muskies to pirates and picnickers. Discover the place where past meets present by visiting our interactive exhibits, relaxing on our waterfront veranda and browsing our unique gift shop.
Located in the Arthur J.E. Child building on the waterfront, we bring the past alive through our exhibits, programming, and tours.
