Visit the past at the most historic town west of Quebec City: Penetanguishene Ontario

Built in 1875 by Karl Maxillian (Charles) Beck the former C. Beck Lumber office and General Store became the Town's Museum in 1967 in celebration of the Country's 100th birthday.

The Museum has been carefully preserved and recreated to show a bygone era when John A. MacDonald was Canada’s Prime Minister and Victoria was Queen of the Commonwealth. It features displays in the original 1875 General Store and Lumber Office, the Great Hall with changing art exhibits and Penetanguishene Sports Hall of Fame.

An active and vital genealogical research center is maintained by dedicated volunteers. Located on the shores of Penetanguishene Bay, the Museum grounds offer a quaint and beautiful setting for gathering of music and tales of our heritage.
