Living History
During its heyday in the mid-19th century, St. Martins was a thriving shipbuilding town. It was one of the richest communities in the Maritime provinces. From 1803-1919, 632 wooden sailing ships were built in New Brunswick; 470 of them were built in St. Martins. Visit the Quaco Museum and take a peek back into the 1800s. Then head off to the Interpretation Centre on the Fundy Trail to learn about our living history.
