Where is it/what house is it? It’s gorgeous.
It’s in Lunenburg, Nova Scotia. Don’t actually know anything about the house. I had the driver stop so could take this from the road on the way back to Halifax.
It’s the Lunenburg Academy:
The Lunenburg Academy is a historic school building located in Lunenburg, Nova Scotia. Constructed in 1895 to replace a building that had been destroyed by fire, the academy operated as a school from 1895 until 2012, when the Town of Lunenburg took over the property. It was designated a National Historic Site in 1983 for its distinctive Second Empire architectural features and its illustration of Nova Scotia’s education system in the 19th century. As of 2019, the building houses a library and music school, and restoration efforts are ongoing.
The graves are a warning to all that attend the school that ignorance will be punished and the price of mediocrity is death
Well, you have to be a venerated elder to ice floes these days…
Cool, thank you!
Nice. I just thought it looks like the kind of house that has a fancy name.
It probably does, I just haven’t spent time time to look into it.
