The interesting and unique history of Bobcaygeon is available for all
to see at Kawartha Settlers' Village. Our knowledgeable guides will
acquaint you with the various events and personalities that shaped
the history of this one-of-a-kind town nestled between Sturgeon and
Pigeon Lakes. From its early beginnings as a fur trading post in the
1600’s, right up to its peak as the hub of the local lumber
industry in 1800’s Upper Canada, Bobcaygeon has always been a
place of interest and activity. Come see our collection of buildings
and artifacts from the period of Bobcaygeon's settlement.
