Major’s Point Cemetery & Chapel
About the site
This historic attraction features the site of Clare’s first Acadian cemetery and first mass. In addition to a fenced cemetery area, the site features a memorial cairn and a small wooden chapel (1892).
This is a meeting place for the community used for religious services, celebrations and a place of pilgrimage for Acadian descendants.
Site improvements were added to the site during 2024 and 2025 to help mitigate future flooding impacts.
