Glanmore National Historic Site

Glanmore is an excellent example of Second Empire architecture in Canada. Now a regional museum, it was built for banker J.P.C. Phillips. This year, with Glanmore celebrating its 50th anniversary as a museum and its 140th since the house was constructed, it will be hosting a special exhibit in the basement. Visitors can also take part in a scavenger hunt.

Glanmore is an excellent example of Second Empire architecture in Canada. The home — now a regional museum — was built in 1883 for banker J.P.C. Phillips. Interiors feature ornate frescoed ceilings, suspended staircases and intricate woodwork. Even though the site has reopened, there is much to see and do through Digital Doors Open. Explore their online collections and watch a video about the restoration of the site.
