Overview

Visit Cossit House Museum, housed within one of the oldest historic homes in Sydney, Nova Scotia, to discover how a controversial Loyalist Anglican minister and his wife started a new life in the capital of a rapidly growing British colony. You’ll get to know Rev. Ranna Cossit and his wife, Thankful, who raised their family of ten children in this modest New England-style house.

During your visit, chat with costumed guides and take part in daily activities of the 1700s, like stitching a sampler or churning butter.
