Lunenburg was the first British Colonial settlement (other than Halifax). Many of its original 1700s and 1800s buildings are still standing and many are in use, providing a wonderful architectural display. There is still a large German and maritime/fishing influence evident, although tourism is now the main trade. Canada has declared it both a National Historic District and a place of National Historic Significance. UNESCO placed it on its World Heritage List.
