Special Events: 2010

War of 1812 reenactment

Spend a day in the 19th century at Fanshawe Pioneer Village. The past comes alive through daily demonstrations of 19th century trades and farming practices, domestic chores and social pastimes by costumed interpreters. Each visit promises something new to explore and discover.

Visitors will experience the life of farming communities around London throughout the 19th century. Original houses, churches, a woodworking shop, a school and even an Orange Hall complete the rural landscape. Other original structures include the Denfield General Store and Post Office, Harmer Sawmill and Trinity Anglican Church to present an urban community at the turn of the 20th century.

The Denfield General Store continues to operate as a full gift shop offering a unique variety of hand crafted gifts and souvenirs. On special event days, catch a ride around the Village on a wagon pulled by horses or a vintage tractor. Drop by the Pioneer Village Café for a delicious lunch featuring homemade soups, salads and breads all made with local produce.
