A Glimpse Inside the Government House

All summer, until August 31st the Government House will be open to tour, for free. Hours are 11am to 4pm Monday to Friday and 10am to 4pm on weekends.

The Government House has been the residence of the lieutenant governor since Gov. Wentworth had it constructed in 1807. It is the oldest official residence in Canada and probably our best and most extravagant example of Georgian architecture.

The Government House is located at 1451 Barrington St, across from the Old Burying Ground.
