Cornwall and SDG Counties

The Martintown Mill, built in 1846 by Alexander McMartin, is located in the centre of the village of Martintown in a picturesque setting on the Raisin River. Built with local fieldstone, it served the region as a flour milling operation. Commercial use of the mill ended in 1947. It is now a popular museum and tourist destination.

This site comprises 10 heritage buildings that were moved here by members of The Lost Villages Historical Society when the St. Lawrence Seaway was developed in 1958. Casualties of progress, the villages and hamlets disappeared under water but are remembered by former residents. The interiors and exteriors have been restored, and the buildings have been assembled in a village-like setting.
