Sainte-Marie
among the Hurons
Follow in the footsteps of Ontario's first Europeans, explore this recreated,
17th century French Jesuit mission headquarters and experience the interaction
of the French and native Wendat Huron nation. A rare chance to see the
earliest in Canadian pioneer life through guided or self-guided visits,
school group tours, "hands-on" education
programs, special events and corporate functions. Sainte-Marie among
the Hurons will shed light on one of the earliest examples of the introduction
of Christianity into Aboriginal culture.
Sainte-Marie today provides a unique historical experience which will
delight and intrigue visitors of all ages
