about

Real History in Real Time

With every scrape of an archaeologist’s trowel, stirring of a pot, or planting of a seed, we’re coming a little bit closer to understanding the history of the Colony and the lives of the people who lived here.

Established in 1621 by Sir George Calvert (the First Lord Baltimore), the Colony of Avalon is widely recognized as the best preserved early English colonial site in North America. Today, on-going work at the Colony is changing the way we understand that past.

About COLONY OF AVALON FOUNDATION INC

The Colony of Avalon Foundation was incorporated in 1994 as a not-for-profit, charitable organization with a mandate to research, preserve and present the archaeological remains of Lord Baltimore's Colony of Avalon. Today, the Colony employs approx. 20 seasonal staff, supports archaeological excavation and research, manages a collection of more than a million artifacts, and operates a fully-equipped conservation laboratory, visitor centre, reproduction 17th seventeenth-century kitchen, three heritage gardens and gift shop.
