Fultz House was built by Bennett and Mary Fultz in the 1860’s located at the intersection of the two great roads, Old Sackville Drive that lead to the valley and Cobequid Road that went to Truro and beyond. Bennett and Mary ran a post office from their kitchen window. The stagecoaches came from Halifax with passengers and mail.
In 1979 Fultz House was going to be demolished for a new highway. Six community groups came together and formed to Fultz Corner Restoration Society to come together as a community to save the historic Fultz House. Fultz House Museum officially opened in 1982 with the historic house and artifacts that had been collected. The Grace Cooperage was moved to the property, a replica blacksmith shop was built, a replica carriage house was built, and the Sackville Heritage Archives are part of Fultz House Museum.
Today there are 100’s of artifacts, photos, and interpretive displays to depict the history of our communities.
Visit Fultz House Museum to learn about the history of Beaver Bank, Kinsac, Lucasville, and Sackville.
