Hello, There seems to be some confusion, and we apologize for your disappointment. "Canada's Penitentiary Museum" has been closed since mid-March when the pandemic closures began. In our case, this is due, in part, to the fact that we occupy a Victorian house and we rely upon volunteers for our operation. Contrary to your understanding, since March we have indeed clearly announced our closure on all of our social media, particularly on our website...and in two places within it! Take another look at our "Home" and "Visitor Info" pages where you will find our closure notice is clearly posted. (Make sure you are not looking at the "Kingston Pen Tours" website, as that is a different place.) We also put the word out on our Facebook pages ("Canada's Penitentiary Museum" and "Friends of the Penitentiary Museum"). We made this difficult decision to remain closed in order to protect our building, our staff, our volunteers and you, our visitors and, of course, we made that announcement from the start of the pandemic in March in order to save disappointment and frustration such as you appear to be experiencing. We hope that you will give us another try when the pandemic is over and we are able to reopen. In future, please take more care to plan your travel, particularly during unusual times such as these. Stay well!
