Kleinburg is a historic village neighborhood in Vaughan, Ontario. Its rural character and heritage buildings set it apart from the suburban streets that surround it, and it makes a relaxed day out for visitors who want to slow down and walk.
What to see
- The McMichael Canadian Art Collection, the village's best-known landmark, which focuses on the work of Canadian artists and the landscapes that inspired them.
- Heritage buildings along the village streets, which give the core of Kleinburg its older, small-town feel.
- The surrounding countryside, which is a large part of the village's rural charm.
What kind of visit it makes
Kleinburg suits a slower outing. Many visitors combine a visit to the art collection with an unhurried wander through the village, stopping to look at the buildings and the natural setting. Because the village is small, it is easy to see on foot once you arrive, and the atmosphere is calm compared with the busier parts of the city.
If you are planning a trip, check the McMichael Canadian Art Collection's current arrangements directly before you go, as details of visiting may change. Kleinburg is located in Vaughan, so it works well as part of a wider day exploring the northern edge of the Greater Toronto Area.
