Tower of History

The Tower of History was built in 1968 and stands 210 feet (64 m) above the city. An express elevator goes to observation decks where you can get a vantage point up to 1,200 square miles (1931 km) with views of Sault Ste Marie, Soo Locks, the St. Mary’s River, Lake Superior and the Canadian wilderness. The tower was originally constructed by the Catholic church and information panels throughout the tower outline the history of the region's missionaries as well as the history of the area's Indigenous peoples. The lower level also offers historical exhibits.
