Free Heritage Weekend at Whitehern

In honour of Heritage Month, all Hamilton Civic Museums will be open for visitation free of charge. 

Join us for a special opportunity to view Whitehern at your own pace; your museum visit will be self-guided with the presence of knowledgeable staff situated throughout the home to answer questions. Whitehern Historic House & Garden is a mid-19th century urban estate maintained by the McQuesten family for three generations. It was built in 1848 with a 1930s addition and includes original family furnishings from the Georgian, Victorian, and Edwardian eras in the context of Thomas B. McQuesten’s career in 1939.
