McCulloch House

Pictou, Nova Scotia - Sunrise Trail

Discover the story of Nova Scotia’s Scottish immigrants through a new, interactive exhibit. Get to know Rev. Dr. Thomas McCulloch, a man who stirred up controversy about education, religion, and politics. He landed in Nova Scotia in 1803, bringing ashore his passion for liberal education and nature.

Explore this early-1800s house to learn how Scottish culture influenced the development of Pictou and the province. Discover a time of ships, kilts and big ideas.

This site is a fine example for visitors interested in Scottish-inspired architecture, Scottish culture and history within Nova Scotia, Nova Scotian lifestyles and historic Nova Scotian houses.
