The Amherstburg Freedom Museum tells the story of African-Canadians’ journey and contributions, by preserving stories and presenting artifacts that educate and inspire. The museum was founded by Amherstburg resident Melvin “Mac” Simpson, on the belief that social, economic and educational issues would be better addressed by a society with greater knowledge and pride in its own history. After over 40 years of service, and with generous support from individuals, foundations, corporations, and government sources, the Amherstburg Freedom Museum continues to be a national symbol of courage, determination and freedom.

Amherstburg meant freedom, as the Canadian destination for many Black people escaping slavery in the United States. You will experience the history of the Underground Railroad and the compassion that it took to make this network possible. The site includes Nazrey AME Church, National Historic Site and a stop on the Underground Railroad, and the Taylor Log Cabin. This is truly a must visit when staying in Amherstburg.
