Amherstburg Freedom Museum

On Tuesday, July 28th, 2020 the Amherstburg Freedom Museum will be re-opening its doors and would like to welcome visitors to return to the museum following new safety protocols.  Admission is by appointment only and must be booked by calling the museum at 519-736-5433 or 1-800-713-6336.  Time slots will be for 50 minutes 12pm – 5pm with no more than 10 people per slot. 

The Amherstburg Freedom Museum welcomes all people of all ages to experience the history of the Underground Railroad and the compassion and solidarity it took to make this network possible. Site includes Nazrey AME Church, National Historic Site and stop on the Underground Railroad, and the Taylor Log Cabin from the same period that looks like the occupants just stepped out for a moment. It is entirely appropriate, and even necessary, that the Museum was established in Amherstburg. Amherstburg meant freedom, as the Canadian destination for many Black people escaping slavery in the United States. The Museum is uniquely situated to resource a profound history, steeped in its surroundings, to further extend public knowledge and enjoyment.

$7.50/Adult, $6.50/Students and Seniors, $30/Group of (5)
