Exploring local heritage: Visit the Ulverton Wool Mill
The Ulverton Wool Mill is an industrial museum located in the heart of the Eastern Townships. We offer a variety of outdoor activities for the whole family.
Come and discover Quebec’s industrial history in a beautiful setting. Dating back to 1840, the mill is a classified heritage building by the Government of Quebec and boasts architectural features characteristic of the wooden and stone constructions of that era. For you, the Mill comes back to life and recreates the atmosphere of a shop, a workshop where oil mingles with sweat. The restoration work on the Blanchette Mill has enabled several of our impressive machines (carder, spinner, shredder, etc.) to be put back into operation.
