Knaut-Rhuland House Museum - Come and Visit!
Explore Lunenburg's unique history with Knaut-Rhuland House Museum's costumed guides. Located along the South Shore region of Nova Scotia, this National Historic Site, circa 1793, is a wonderful example of Georgian architecture filled with discovery and insight as to why we are a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The museum offers both permanent and temporary exhibitions. The two principal main rooms present original furniture and artifacts from two different periods of the house's history, the late eighteenth and mid-nineteenth centuries. The house has remained substantially unaltered and is the only domestic dwelling of this period in the town that is open to the public.
Owned and operated by the Lunenburg Heritage Society, we are open June 7th - September 30th. Books, posters and postcards published by the society are for sale on site. Admission by donation.

Town of Lunenburg
Lunenburg is a port town on the South Shore of Nova Scotia, Canada. Founded in 1753, the town was one of the first British attempts to settle Protestants in Nova Scotia in an effort to displace the French colonial Roman Catholic Acadians and indigenous Mi'kmaq.
Through the nineteenth and well into the twentieth centuries, Lunenburg became famous for the quality of its schooners, which fishermen sailed to the fish-rich Grand Banks off Newfoundland and the Western Bank off Sable Island. The queen of the schooner era was the famous Bluenose, launched at Lunenburg in 1921.
