Driving Tour

From May through October the Oil Museum of Canada, National Historic Site offers a self-directed driving tour starting at the Museum's parking lot.

Through the Oil Heritage District Driving Tour, you are guided to different sites around Oil Springs that trace the evolution of oil from its humble 19th-century beginnings, through its 20th-century growth into the future of energy production and innovation in the 21st century and beyond.

The tour finishes at the Fairbank home. Feel free to drive up to the barn for a closer look at arguably the most photographed barn in Southwestern Ontario and say hi to a donkey and a sheep or two.

 Maps are provided at the museum and regular admission rates apply.
