Lake of the Woods Cemetery Tours

With over 14,000 burials the Lake of the Woods Cemetery is one of the largest cemeteries in northern Ontario. Join us as we explore Kenora’s history through the lens of life and death. From true crime tales and murder mysteries, to the Ontario-Manitoba border war, sickness and disease, and one of the most famous bank robberies in Canadian history. These true stories of real people combine to give a history of Kenora like you’ve never heard before.
