The Chocolate Museum

You might expect that a place officially dubbed “Canada’s Chocolate Town” has a bit of a connection to chocolate! For about 150 years the Ganong Bros. chocolate company has had a place of honour in St. Stephen. And that’s as true today as ever. Ready to indulge?

Few people visit St. Stephen without their passport. Just across the St. Croix River from Calais, Maine, St. Stephen enjoys a close relationship with its U.S. counterpart. Crossing the border? Be sure to stop in St. Stephen for a walk through town, a bite to eat, or a relaxing stroll along the river. Or come join us for our International Homecoming Festival, where both communities have been coming together every August since 1973 to celebrate what makes our area so special! Food, activities, a cross border parade and finishing with an amazing firework display enjoyed by all on both sides of the border makes this festival an activity to be enjoyed again and again!
