Heritage Museum

The Town of Lawn boasts a small Museum with displays of the fishery, military, and outport Newfoundland living. Uncle Paddy's Dory is a great outdoor introduction to the many attractions inside. An old outport kitchen with potbelly stove and oil lamps, wedding dresses, and sewing machines are just some of the lifestyle articles found at The Heritage Museum.

Learn about the USS Truxtun and USS Pollux Disaster and how the brave people of Lawn and St. Lawrence helped rescue US Shipmen. "The USS Truxtun and USS Pollux Wreck Sites are historically valuable because of the story they tell of a war time marine disaster and a town's heroism, bravery and compassion."

This is a place for everyone to enjoy and reflect and welcome visitors to experience a little piece of Lawn's history.
