Heritage Buildings

The Simcoe County Museum is home to ten heritage buildings that have been relocated to the Museum grounds from various locations around Simcoe County. From the 1834 Spearin log home to the newly relocated 1922 Cedar View Cottage, this architectural display of heritage buildings illustrate daily life and the growth and development of the area.
