* *Spadina Museum: Historic House & Gardens
* *

Please download the latest version of Adobe Flash player to see the slideshow here.

For over a century, Spadina was home to three generations of the Austin family. Opened in 1984, it is one of 10 historic museums operated by the City of Toronto.

Spadina Museum has recently completed its interior restoration, bringing the house into the twentieth century - 1920s & 30s. This transformative period dramatically changed Toronto. Find out more about the restoration.

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