In 2009, the Unionville Historical Society celebrated its 25th anniversary.
The purpose of the Unionville Historical Society is to preserve and promote the historic village of Unionville.
Main Street Unionville is in the heart of the village, with its original buildings dating back to 1825.
Why is Main Street Unionville such a popular spot? Why do over one million visitors come here every year?
Perhaps it's because of our 216 year heritage. The 18th century legacy of our first settlers is on display, as beautiful historic buildings, old mills, churches, and more, line the old Main Street. These buildings are alive with shops and restaurants which have tucked themselves into the modern weave of the street. You will find service that is refreshingly personal and wares ranging from the "chic" to the "unique".
People come to Main Street to absorb the atmosphere, to slow down and wander through the shops and boutiques (now numbering over seventy), and to refresh themselves through the fabulous offerings of numerous, unique restaurants and street-front cafes. For refreshment of a different kind, take in our four galleries, and several kilometres of inviting, forested pathways that wind their way through and around the village and past the old pond. Self-guided walking tours are a fun way to discover the heritage area as well. Making a visit to Unionville even more special are free "open-air" musical performances at the bandstand, several quaint festivals and special pedestrian friendly shopping during every holiday. Special year-round "touches" like horse & carriage rides, heritage train rides departing from the old train station, and a candlelight parade to welcome Santa to the street for Christmas, are "must see" favourites.
That's why people come to Main Street Unionville. It's heritage, it's shopping and dining, it's culture - it's Unionville - a special year-round place like no other in the Toronto area, and all just a quick twenty minute escape from downtown.
