Since 1988, Hospice Peterborough has provided compassionate support to people living with serious illness, grief and loss, as well as their caregivers. Completed in 2019, the exterior of the facility was designed to honour the historic Langton House that once stood on the site. During Doors Open Peterborough, meet friendly volunteers and learn more about the site and Hospice’s services.

Opened in 2022, the Peterborough & County Military Museum invites visitors to discover the region’s remarkable military heritage. Located on the ground floor of the historic Peterborough Armoury and operated by knowledgeable volunteers, the museum features artifacts and stories spanning the War of 1812, the 1837 Rebellion, Fenian Raids, both World Wars, the Korean War and today’s peacekeeping missions.

Celebrating its 200th anniversary, St. John’s is Peterborough’s oldest church. The church was built of Jackson Creek limestone in 1835-37 and is one of the earliest examples of Gothic Revival architecture in Ontario. Come and admire the beautiful stained glass and other features of this vibrant Anglican parish that serves both the spiritual and material needs of the community.
