Welcome to the Willsboro walking tour!

If you were here 150 years ago, you'd be exploring the bustling Willsborough Falls, or "The Falls," as locals called it. Founded in 1765 by William Gilliland, the town spans the Boquet River to Lake Champlain and has a rich industrial history. From early iron works to thriving mills and a quarry that supplied stone for the Brooklyn Bridge, Willsboro prospered through diverse industries. Today, you'll discover a range of architectural styles from the late 1700s to the 1950s, reflecting the town’s growth during its 19th-century boom. Enjoy exploring its historic charm!
