The History of Sage Hill

The story of Sage Hill and the city around it.

Sage Hill is part of Brantford, Ontario — a city with deep roots in Indigenous history, the Loyalist era, and the birthplace of the telephone.

Bell Homestead National Historic Site

Alexander Graham Bell made the world's first long-distance telephone call from his father's homestead in Tutela Heights, just minutes from West Brant. The Bell Homestead National Historic Site preserves the farmhouse and coach house where Bell conducted his early telephone experiments in the 1870s. Open seasonally for tours.
