Official Season Opening – Rideau Canal Museum

The Rideau Canal Museum is housed in a 19th century stone building which was once a mill: the Woods Mills Complex. Inside, high-technology displays and a variety of artifacts bring to life the history of the canal – its construction from 1826 to 1831, its role throughout history, as well as the distinct lifestyle and folklore associated with the Rideau Waterway.
