Magazine LoungeSince the first settlers arrived, fire has been a constant threat to the growing Hespeler community.
This new photo exhibit is being staged during the Great Hespeler Reunion 2026 and highlights the major fires that forged Hespeler Village as we know it today.
This event is presented in partnership with the Fire Hall Museum & Education Centre.

Nestled in historic Hespeler village, the Hespeler Library is a fusion of the old and the new. This 100-year-old Carnegie library is encased in a modern glass structure and boasts a comfortable reading area with a fireplace as well as a spacious and welcoming children’s area. The environmentally responsible building features recycled white oak floors and a ceramic treatment on the glass to reduce sunlight intensity.
Cambridge Public Library supports and inspires its community to explore reading, the arts, innovation, and lifelong learning across five locations and online.
