Keillor House Museum

Restored Georgian stone house in Dorchester with local history and prison collections.

Keillor House is a Georgian stone mansion in Dorchester, restored to show the life of a prosperous 19th-century household. The rooms hold period furniture, china, kitchen tools, and local records, so the visit feels domestic rather than grand.

The coach house adds a stranger edge: displays connected with the old Dorchester penitentiary, once one of Canada's major prisons. Together they make Dorchester worth the short detour from Sackville.
