Prescott House Museum
Prescott House Museum, located in the picturesque Annapolis Valley, is an elegant Georgian house that showcases the historical contributions of horticulturist Charles Prescott, who played a pivotal role in cultivating Nova Scotia's apple industry from 1811 to 1859. The museum features family portraits, antique furnishings, and an impressive collection of hand-stitched samplers and tribal Oriental carpets, all while surrounded by beautiful gardens and lush countryside.
In the 1930s, Charles Prescott's great-granddaughter, Mary Allison Prescott, rescued the derelict building, restoring it to become a gracious home and significant cultural site. The museum's garden is also ideal for outdoor weddings and photographs, making it a versatile venue for various events. Generated from the website
