Event Details
Take a step back in time the Victorian Toronto and experience the magic of a traditional Christmas in an 1859 row-house. Escape the hustle and bustle while you enjoy a sample of mulled cider and a biscuit in the warmth of the historic kitchen. Discover how families celebrated Christmas in 19th century Toronto as you tour the Mackenzie home which is dressed in greenery for the holidays.
Until December 24, children are invited to write a letter to Santa Claus during their visit. Select a card that has been printed on our 1845 printing press and write a personal message. Drop the wish card into our magic post box and it will be delivered to Santa.
This event is presented as part of the Toronto History Museums Holiday Programming.
