The
Age of Sail is a museum complex consisting of 6 display buildings, including a
repurposed 1854 Methodist Church, a newer uniquely built ship building, an
original working blacksmith shop, 1908 lighthouse, wharf walkway and more.
There is also a café, gift shop, archives and genealogy database, and a
public space for meetings or rentals. Professional hands-on exhibits, videos
and interpretive tours help to interpret the history of the lumbering,
shipbuilding and sailing history of the Parrsborough Shore as well as the
communities that supported them. Special activities are available for children
and self-tour guides in French and German are available. The museum is located
in Port Greville, on an old shipyard site along a tidal river on Highway 2, 3 kilometres
from Parrsboro in the Fundy Shore Annapolis Valley Region.
