Parks

Liberation Memorial Park was developed in 1907 on the occasion of the 25th anniversary of the Liberation of the Netherlands. The park has been a place of celebration of freedom for Dutch Canadian's in Huron County. This is where Princess Margriet of the Netherlands unveiled a plaque on May 14, 2017, and signed a scroll of gratitude expressed for the Canadian sacrifice in the Liberation of the Netherlands where 20 Huron County men gave their lives.

The park was donated by the Dutch immigrants, who settled in this area in the 1950s, as a tribute to the role Canadian soldiers played in the liberation of Holland during the Second World War. The Liberation of the Netherlands Fountain and Liberation of Holland Pavilion are located in the park.
