You can also discover 19th-century fine art, furniture, and clothing and learn about the history of Mi’gmaw and Wolastoqitik culture.

Queens County Court House Museum

Of the surviving early court houses in New Brunswick, the Queens County Court House is one of the oldest, dating back to 1836.

This courthouse is considered one of New Brunswick’s hidden architectural gems – but more than that, you can hear stories about some of Queens County’s more interesting court cases, sit in the prisoner’s box and judge’s chair, and research your family history. This is the place to educate yourself on all the local culture and heritage!

Gagetown Marina

The Gagetown Marina can be found in the heart of the lower Saint John River, making it a fantastic starting point to explore all the coves, lakes, and bays in the surrounding area. It’s a full-service marina with seasonal, long-term, and short-term docking options.  On-site, you can visit The Old Boot Pub and Dockside Bar, a restaurant/pub with lots of outdoor seating that overlooks the marina and river. Within walking distance of the marina, you can find a general store, a post office, two museums, historic homes, and many shops featuring products by local artisans.

Gagetown Lighthouse

Erected in the 1930s, this lighthouse stands tall on the west bank of the Saint John River, where the river’s main branch makes an almost 90-degree turn. It’s been used over the years to help guide vessels along the river between Jemseg and Upper Musquash Island and to mark this particularly dramatic turn in the river.

Loomcrofters Studio

The Loomcrofters Studio building is one of the oldest in New Brunswick, dating back to 1789, and was a hand-weaving studio at one time. It is marked as a turning point in arts and crafts development in New Brunswick.

The building still includes historic furniture, cabinets, tables, shelving, and working looms used in the original business. There are also reproductions of the official gifts to royalty, remaining stock (ties, towels, ornaments, etc.) from the closure of the business, and unused materials like woollens, cotton, and synthetics. On top of all that, the entire business archive of papers, patterns, notes, letters, bills, and invoices remains intact.
