Area Information
On July 1, 1997, the Village and the Township amalgamated to become the Town of Petawawa.
The town is located in the Ottawa Valley.
The first European settlers came from Scotland and Ireland followed some years later around 1885 by German homesteaders. Settlers found the land to be uncooperative for farming but the timber was valuable and created jobs and economic opportunities from those times to these. In 1905, the Canadian military acquired land in the area which has now been developed into Canadian Forces Base Petawawa, currently one of Canada`s largest military bases. The base is now an integral part of the town. Town of Petawawa
