Welcome to ACO Port Hope Historic Barn Quilt Tour.


The Architectural Conservancy of Ontario (ACO), Port Hope Branch, is celebrating Canada’s 150th Anniversary
by honouring the history of Port Hope Barns. Many of our valued barns have been chosen not only for their architectural significance,
but also for their ongoing economic contribution to the community.

About the Barns & Tiles

Each barn has its own identity. The unique history, ongoing story and continuing cultural contribution is beautifully narrated by hand painted board tiles with traditional quilt borders.

Thank You to Our Sponsors

The Architectural Conservancy of Ontario (ACO) Port Hope Branch, would like to express their
sincere thanks to the sponsors of The Barn Quilt Project, which has brought the history of Port Hope barns
and their significance to the community to life in a creative and compelling way.
