      Join RCRM’s Curator, Dr. Georgiana Stanciu, for a fascinating Curated Tour at 2 PM on Thursday, 16 July 2026: How the Valley at Carling’s Farm Became Wolseley Barracks.

      The purchase of the property on which Wolseley Barracks stands today is a story of hands changing ownership and partisan opinions that sparked excitement and controversy within the community. This Curated Tour unravels the mystery of a three-way deal. As part of the tour, view additional topic-related artefacts.

      This tour is part of the museum's celebration of Historic Places Days 2026.

      This tour is presented in connection to the Royal Canadian Regiment Museum's temporary exhibition, Fascinating Redcoats. The Story of Wolseley Barracks (26 Jun–20 Sept), held during the bicentennial year of the City of London, ON. Find more information on the museum’s website. No registration required.

      Access the site via Elizabeth Street.
      As of 1 April 2026, visitors are required to provide a government issued photo ID by the commissionnaire on duty at the controlled access point to the military property.
