Wallaceburg

Wallaceburg balances small-town calm with a long manufacturing tradition in a way that reflects its position on the Sydenham River in southwestern Ontario. Part of the municipality of Chatham-Kent, it developed where local waterways connected industry with the Lake St. Clair and St. Clair River corridor. Glassmaking became a defining chapter in Wallaceburg’s identity; factories here once produced household glassware and helped earn the community its “Glass Town” nickname. The riverfront remains central to local life, while the compact commercial core serves the surrounding farming country. Each summer, the Wallaceburg Antique Motor and Boat Outing brings historic vehicles and boats to town. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of Wallaceburg and Chatham-Kent.
