Park House Museum

During January and February the Park House Museum will be open by appointment only; please contact the museum to book a tour or place a tin order. Check for special events. The Park House is an early example of Pièce sur Pièce log construction and is said to have been built in the 1790s at the mouth of the Rouge River in Detroit. When Detroit was ceded to the United States, the owners decided to dismantle the building and float it down the Detroit River to Amherstburg. Today the Park House is a year round museum catering to the needs of visiting school children, seniors and the general public, as well as being an interesting and informative place to visit. Set Programs are available and custom tours can be arranged for special interest groups. During the summer months the pensioner's cottage is open to the public where tinsmithing is demonstrated. Tin sales are open year round and can be purchased in the gift shop or ordered online. If you are interested in booking a tour please contact the Park House Museum.
