National Historic Site.

Orillia began as a village in 1867, became a town in 1875 and a city in 1969. “Orillia” means riverbank in Spanish, a name given by Sir Peregrine Maitland, lieutenant-governor of Upper Canada (1818-28), who had served in Spain. The site was originally a Huron-Wendat settlement and later Ojibwe. For hundreds of years they trapped fish at The Narrows, a thin peninsula separating lakes Simcoe and Couchiching. In fact, Archaeologists consider this area one of the oldest known human developments, created long before recorded history. It was here around 3,300 B.C. that wooden fishing weirs were erected to easily catch the bountiful fish swimming between the two bodies of water. The site is now officially recognized as a national historic site of Canada.
