Every city has its own attractions that everyone needs to see. In London, Ontario one of them is definitely Fanshawe Pioneer Village. The London and Middlesex Heritage Museum has created an entire interactive museum on several acres of land on the edge of the city. It allows you to step out of the world of working with a turret punch or in a computer firm and into what this community was like between 1820 and 1920.

One of the best ways to experience the village is just to take some time to walk around and explore. You will find many daily demonstrations that will tell you about everything from farming practices to social gatherings as they were done in the 19th century. While we may now drive to work from Guildwood homes and watch television for entertainment at the end of the day, you will find that life was entirely different only one hundred years ago. While we go to the mall, they went to Denfield General Store, for example.

Those that are looking for a more intense learning experience also have plenty of choices at Fanshawe Pioneer Village. You could sign up your kids to spend an afternoon in a program like A Day in the Life or The Village at Work while you're doing your weekend errands, buying everything from groceries to adhesive name tags. Or they might be interested in spending every day for a week in the summer at the village as part of the summer camp program. There are classes that you can sign up for individually and those that are meant for entire school classes.

While there is plenty to do for everyone from a history buff to someone who works in a veterinarian clinic London Ontario based on an average day at Fanshawe Pioneer Village, there are also many events that take place on this site throughout the year. The Village Opening usually happens in May and there are celebrations for Queen Victoria's birthday and Dominion Day. There is also Friday Night Summer Concert Series and a period musical that has showings throughout the summer or at Christmastime.

From holiday parties, to company picnics, to weddings, there are dozens of private events that are also held at this location throughout the year. If you're looking for rental information to host a barbecue for those working at your mortgage company in Canada or are planning a birthday for a grandparent than you can find out everything you need to know about rentals on the Fanshawe Pioneer Village website.
