The Olde Angel Inn - Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario

Established in 1789 and rebuilt in 1815 after the War of 1812, it is said to
be Ontario's oldest operating inn. A main floor pub evokes memories of days gone by. No pictures here, but I've enjoyed a pint or three here!

A sign on the outside of the Inn states:
"During the War of 1812, American forces briefly occupied the town of Niagara-on-the-Lake. Legend tells of the brave Loyalist Captain Swayze killed in the inn's cellars during fierce fighting (in May 1813). Many believe the gallant captain's ghost still haunts the inn. Strange things happen unless the British flag is kept flying above the olde inn door ....
P.S. In revenge, in 1814, British warships sailed up the Potomac and set fire to a similar historic building in Washington, D.C. It is now know as The White House.
