History

Keeping up with a peek into history, you can visit the Bath Museum and see the transition of Bath from pre-colonial times to World War II, with the oldest items being 400 years old. This museum started a little unconventionally: as a pop-up club. In 1936 Bath residents first enjoyed a display of artifacts set up in the Town Hall for Dominion Day. The club eventually expanded to Canada Day and functioned as a regular pop-up until, in the 1980s, some locals worked with the municipality to open a seasonal museum exhibit in Layer Cake Hall. It shifted in 2009 to the Old Town Hall, where you can find it today!
