Fulford Place
Walk the Same Halls as Royalty
Walk the same halls as royalty and step into the luxury of another era. Explore the grand Fulford mansion, filled with original furnishings and family treasures. Wander the restored Olmsted Brothers gardens and experience a remarkable piece of Ontario’s heritage.
A Mansion Built on a Global Success
Senator George T. Fulford built his fortune selling “Pink Pills for Pale People” from Brockville to the world. Between 1899 and 1901, he constructed Fulford Place, a 20,000-square-foot Edwardian mansion overlooking the St. Lawrence River. The original grounds were designed by the Olmsted firm, best known for creating New York City’s Central Park.
Inside the mansion, original tapestries, paintings, statuary, and ceramics from the Fulfords’ world travels are on display. The Beaux Arts style of the home reflected the family’s wealth and social standing. Fulford Place once welcomed Canadian prime ministers, British princes, and other prominent guests.
In 1987, Fulford Place was donated to the Ontario Heritage Trust and later opened to the public as a house museum.
