Nelles Manor Museum

This historic manor was built by United Empire Loyalist and entrepreneur Colonel Robert Nelles between 1788 and 1798 at The Forty (now Grimsby). Visitors can still see original architectural details and artifacts, and the surrounding grounds are recognized as a War of 1812 battleground. The manor remained in the Nelles family for four generations until it was purchased by the Coutts in 1971. Today, the manor provides guided tours and serves as a venue for a wide range of events and programs.
