* *Spadina Museum: Historic House & Gardens
* * Toronto Culture

History comes to life - The visitor's experience
From a Victorian country estate to an Edwardian city mansion, Spadina Museum: Historic House & Gardens chronicles four generations of a wealthy Toronto family. The estate provides not only a beautiful landscape for a stately home, but also offers a window onto the history, household economy and aesthetic preferences of the 1800s and early 1900s.

Visitors can view the changing exhibits, artifacts, furnishings and original materials or explore the estate's Victorian-Edwardian garden. Learn more!

Spadina Museum: Historic House & Gardens is one of 10 historic museums operated by Toronto Culture. Toronto's Historic Museums engage visitors, inspire passion, challenge ideas and connect the past to the present.
