Doors Open

The Ontario Heritage Trust works with communities across the province to open the doors, gates and courtyards of unique and fascinating cultural sites so you can explore the stories inside.

Doors Open

The Township of Springwater is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year by holding a special event during Doors Open. Activities for the whole family will take place at the Township Administration Centre from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on September 21, 2019. There will be building tours, surprise giveaways, and artifacts of cultural, political and natural heritage significance on display.

About our building

The Township of Springwater was incorporated on January 1, 1994 when the Townships of Flos and Vespra were amalgamated with the Village of Elmvale and the Hillsdale/Orr Lake area from the Township of Medonte. The current municipal office is located on the former site of the Midhurst Forest Station that began operating in 1922. Upon the building’s completion in 2009, it received a LEED Silver Standard recognizing its sustainability and limited impact on the environment.
