Steeped in historic charm and situated on the banks of the Detroit River, Amherstburg is one of the oldest towns in the province. Its unique, century old buildings and lovely waterfront setting make it the perfect scenic getaway.
Historic sites, lovely parks, quaint shops along cobblestone steets, overflowing flower planters, charming lake vistas - it's all here.
Formal and informal gardens surround the fountain and gazebo in the historic King's Navy Yard Park. The present meets the past in this magnificent riverfront park, where ship building for the War of 1812 was a prevalent trade and ultimately shaped the future of our entire nation.
A gateway to 13 area wineries, you can take a stroll down the vineyards, or feel the lake breeze along country roads brimming with the areas finest produce. Visit one or all, of our Festivals and Events. Each will be sure to capture your every sense. Something for everyone!
