About Sydney

Sydney, on Cape Breton Island in Nova Scotia, is a harbour city with a coal and steel past, a giant fiddle and the Cabot Trail within reach.

Sydney stands on a deep harbour on the northeast coast of Cape Breton Island, in Nova Scotia, and was founded in 1785 as the capital of the colony of Cape Breton. Coal and steel built the city in the 19th and 20th centuries, and Cossit House, a restored 18th-century home, and the St Patrick's Church Museum recall that era. A giant fiddle on the waterfront nods to the island's musical traditions.
