Bangor Sawmill

The Bangor Sawmill was a restored 19th-century water-powered turbine lumber sawmill and interpretive centre on the Meteghan River. On June 8, 2024, a fire destroyed the mill. Follow the mill's Facebook group for the latest updates.

One of the last functioning mills of this kind in North America. A major industry in this region’s past and a reminder of the time when hundreds of such mills were seen along the many rivers of western Nova Scotia.

The dam will be repaired in the early spring!

The Bangor Development Commission is in the early stages of planning of activities for the Bangor Mill Museum for the upcoming summer and fall.

Dates are subject to change. More specific details will be released in the future. Follow Facebook page for more details.
