Sutherland Steam Mill

Denmark, Nova Scotia - Sunrise Trail

Discover Nova Scotian ingenuity and neat machines once powered by steam when exploring this 1894 saw mill. For nearly 70 years, Alexander Sutherland and his family produced carriages, sleds, windows, and fancy gingerbread trim for local homes.

If you love things mechanical and innovative, this is the place for you. Kids can find out about pulleys and how they work at a hands-on exhibit just for them.
