About
The Shubenacadie Tinsmith Museum is a museum in the Canadian province of Nova Scotia, located in the community of Shubenacadie. Established by Watson Smith c. 1895 as Watson Smith & Sons Retail Hardware & Tin Shop, the shop produced over 60,000 milk cans before the cans became obsolete around the 1950s. The building opened to the public as a museum in 2003, after being donated to the Municipality of East Hants.
