1. Meaford Museum

The Meaford Museum was originally built in 1895 as the Town's Pumping House. Later it was turned into the Public Utilities Offices and finally, in 1961 after a sizable donation of historical memorabilia was received by the town, the building was turned into the Meaford Museum. Since that time several renovations, additions and improvements have been made creating the new Meaford Museum as an interactive and exciting hub of local history. You will frequently find school or senior groups, individuals and families learning about the history of the former Town of Meaford and Townships of Sydenham and St. Vincent. The Meaford Museum is an important stop on the Apple Pie Trail, featuring information about the local apple growing history. Also for 2014, there is an exhibit about local inventor and hero Andrew Gawley, the Man with Iron Hands. Learn more about Meaford's internationally renowned story of Beautiful Joe and the area which inspired John Muir to create the Sierra Club. Meaford has a robust and unique history that transcends its borders and delights all those who visit to learn about it.

An extensive collection curated by sisters with deep roots in the community and beyond. Items are artfully displayed with background stories, a great learning opportunity. Get a guided tour if possible and ask questions, the stories are eye-opening. Exhibits are not flashy but deeply moving and intriguing. There is a lot to see here, a must see for any race. Note they are currently closed due to Covid, but will definitely check back and visit when restrictions are eased.

Housed inside a historic 1932 CN Rail Station, it is the last train station of its kind in Ontario. The museum features artifacts & archives, working train models, a 1930s CNR caboose and the 1953 CNR train car as well as the area's Tourism Office. It's one of those surprising finds one makes when one slows down long enough to look around. As a bonus, you can picnic on the grounds looking out over the harbour.
