Encyclopedia > Adolphustown, Ontario

Adolphustown is a village located in southeastern Ontario at 44°05'N latitude and 77°02'W longitude on the Adolphus Reach Inlet of Lake Ontario. It was founded in 1784 by United Empire Loyalists.


Local orchards do grow plenty of apples and the local strawberry season begins just before Canada Day, the July 1 long weekend.


Virtually entirely rural, Adolphustown has no real city centre and exists mainly as somewhere to get stuck behind a slow-moving farm tractor on the Loyalist Parkway _ the road leading to the Glenora Ferry which joins Adolphustown to Picton year-round.

Adolphustown is now located within the Town of Greater Napanee.
