What our visitors say
“This is one of the best local museums anywhere. The County of Lennox and Addington takes its history seriously and it shows in the investment they have put into this wonderful facility. The exhibits are well thought out and well displayed. Not just about the local situation but ties to how it would have affected you, even if you are from out of town.”
Paul B.
"The space itself is a beautiful design-part modern, part of the past- and captures the link between the two wonderfully. The exhibits and collections are fascinating... exciting glimpses of our past both personal and collective."
Nancy Clark
"The staff was friendly and informative. The displays are wonderfully displayed and so interesting. We recommend it highly."
