Edinburgh Square Heritage & Cultural Centre

Built in 1857, Edinburgh Square Heritage & Cultural Centre, formerly the Caledonia Town Hall and Lock-Up, was designed by noted architect John Turner.

Edinburgh Square Heritage & Cultural Centre presents the history of Caledonia through educational and outreach activities and a number of permanent & temporary exhibits. Of particular note is a permanent display that highlights the gypsum mining industry along the Grand River.

Local history or family genealogy may be researched in the Gillespie Clark Reference Library. The library contains books, files and documents relating to Caledonia’s rich history. The archive holds a complete collection of surviving editions of the Grand River Sachem from 1856 to the present day.
