About the organizer
Organized by
Huron County Museum & Historic GaolThe Huron County Museum is home to historical and cultural exhibitions, both temporary and permanent. Thousands of artifacts illustrate the history of both our rural and urban communities in a variety of themes and topics. Gratefully, we continue to accept donations of historical items from members of the local and larger community allowing our collection to grow.
The Huron Historic Gaol is a unique octagonal building which served as the County Jail from its opening in 1841 until closure in 1972. At the time of construction it was viewed as a model of humanitarian prison design. Originally the building served as Gaol for the Counties of Huron, Bruce & Perth but eventually each county separated and the building served only the County of Huron for the majority of its history.
We endeavour to tell the stories of Huron County in a variety of methods on-site, off-site and on-line.
