Places associated with famous people to visit

Built in wood in 1833 (completed in 1837) and dubbed Clifton House, it houses magnificent Victorian furniture at the time. She was the residence of Thomas Chandler Haliburton (1796-1865), a Canadian politician, lawyer, judge, historian and successful author (creator of Sam Tide's character). Left to the end of the 1930 s, it was recovered by the provincial government, which made it a museum and historic place.
