| Grand-Pre National Historic Site commemorates the Deportation of the Acadians. It also commemorates the strong attachment that remains to this day among Acadians throughout the world to this area, the heart of their ancestral homeland and symbol of the ties which unite them. The Grand-Pre area was declared Canada's first Rural Historic District in 1995. It includes Grand-Pre National Historic Site, the site of the former Acadian village of Grand-Pre that extended 4 km along the ridge between present-day Wolfville and Hortonville, Nova Scotia, as well as the adjacent marshland. |
