History

The Koffler Museum of Medicine

Hillary House is a house built in 1862 in the Gothic Revival style. The museum exhibits a collection of medical instruments, books, papers, household furnishings, and equipment dating from the early nineteenth to the late twentieth century.
Purchased in the 1980s, the Aurora Historical Society is hosted at Hillary House.
Visitors can drop-in or pre-book a walking tour. Be sure to check out the Aurora Historical Society’s website to register for events that are hosted throughout the year. Mother’s Day teas, crafting workshops, Speaker Series (hybrid) and other interesting events that you can pre-register for, or just come to have your lunch on the back grounds!
