Step inside the charming farmhouse, and you'll be transported to a bygone era. The interiors are adorned in the elegant style of the Victorian Period, paying homage to the Island's rich heritage. Each room is named after a character from the iconic novel, adding a touch of magic to the already enchanting atmosphere.

 

But that's not all that Green Gables Heritage Place has to offer. Visitors can also explore the lush 19th-century gardens, meander along the walking trails, and browse the gift shop for souvenirs to take home. And when hunger strikes, stop by The Butter Churn Café for a bite to eat. So if you're a fan of Anne of Green Gables or simply looking for a tranquil escape, be sure to add Green Gables Heritage Place to your list of must-visit destinations.

📖 History

The roots of Green Gables reach back to the 1830s, when the MacNeil family, Montgomery's relatives, and the original owners of the homestead, erected the now-iconic building. As Montgomery's novels gained popularity in the following decades, so too did the interest in Green Gables. Eventually, the government of Canada purchased the property in 1936, intending to showcase 19th-century farming life on Prince Edward Island. However, as time marched on, plans were put in motion to restore the home to its former glory as depicted in Montgomery's timeless novels. Today, Green Gables and the National Historic Site stand as a tribute to Montgomery's legacy, a beloved museum that immerses visitors in the world of this remarkable author and her unforgettable characters.
