2022 CANDELIGHT GRAVEYARD TOURS ARE CANCELLED DUE TO COVID CONCERNS... Regretably, the Candlelight Graveyard Tours, operated by The Historical Association of Annapolis Royal, will not be available in 2022. Tours will resume in 2023. Thank you for your understanding.
ANNAPOLIS ROYAL LIGHTHOUSE UPDATE -- WE WON! RESTORATION IS COMPLETE. The Annapolis Royal Lighthouse, owned and operated by The Historical Association of Annapolis Royal, was built in 1889 and needed significant structural work in order to preserve it. The Historical Association entered it in the THIS LIGHTHOUSE MATTERS CONTEST in 2015 in hopes of winning the funding needed to repair it. We were in competition with 26 other lighthouses. Our Candlelight Graveyard Tour participants from throughout the world helped us by voting for the Annapolis Royal Lighthouse. With 27,048 votes WE WON 1ST PLACE AND $40,000 towards our preservation efforts. The actual cost exceeded $50,000, and the work was done in 2016. THANK YOU to everyone who voted to help save this important Canadian treasure! Click on the link below the video to see the video about the historic Annapolis Royal Lighthouse that we entered in the contest and on the "Please Help Us" poster below it that we used in competition to see our contest entry and learn more about lighthouses throughout Nova Scotia.
