Kings Landing was established in the late 18th century as a centre of commerce and settlement, particularly in the area of river industry - sawmilling, and gristmilling.
It was established as a United Empire Loyalist settlement in 1790, and thrived well into the Victorian area.
Today Kings landing is one of New Brunswick's premier living history attractions.
The marker, affixed to a granite base, reads:
KINGS LANDING HISTORICAL SETTLEMENT
1790 - 1890
This collection of historic buildings
creates a community representing an
evolution of rural New Brunswick
society from the time of the Loyalists
to the Late Victorians.
