History comes to life - The visitor's experience

Situated in downtown Toronto, Mackenzie House is a Greek Revival row-house, which was purchased by the community for William Lyon Mackenzie who was the first Mayor of Toronto, an outspoken newspaper editor and leader of the 1837 Upper Canada Rebellion.

The museum offers visitors the chance to explore the recreated print shop and gallery or enjoy the many changing exhibitions.
