Step into local military history at Battery Lodge, now home to The Hamilton Military Museum. Originally a guard house during the 1837 Rebellion, this building is rich with stories.
Don’t miss the brand-new exhibit Lawyers and Land Pirates, opening this weekend, which recreates the guard room used by MacNab’s militia and explores the rebellion’s causes and aftermath.
While at the museum, also check out Blood Ties to a Gentle Landscape, showcasing Dundurn Park’s 1812 history, learn about the Hamilton & Scourge wrecks, and experience life as a soldier in the interactive Discovery Gallery!
