Some of the finest homes in Ingersoll can be found on Oxford Street. We invite you to get out of your vehicle, stretch your legs and marvel at the magnificent mansions along this tree-lined route. With this self-guided walking tour, thanks to the Ingersoll Public Library, you can explore the architecture – and the people – from Ingersoll’s past.

This year, the people of Sacred Heart Church are unable to provide in-person tours of this beautiful Gothic-style church. But they invite you to enjoy this virtual tour (see video below) and learn more of the history of the building. Erected in 1880 after a design by architect George Durant, this place of worship includes original stained-glass windows by Robert McCausland, ornate sculptures, vaulted ceilings and more.

Established in 1864, this cemetery has been the final resting place for folks born from the 18th to 21st centuries. A quiet space for contemplative walks, the cemetery offers the chance to study the lives of hundreds of people who once called Ingersoll home. A special feature for Doors Open Oxford-Ingersoll will be the opportunity to explore the mausoleum.

Now in its 45th year, this award-winning museum has become the focus of the Oxford County Cheese Trail and the hub of cycling in Ingersoll. Beginning as a cheese museum, it has since become a community museum, home of the recreated Oxford County Museum School.
