Additional Comments:
Originally known as the Town of Eden, the town's name was changed to Bar Harbor in 1918. Bar Harbor has a fascinating history as a summer resort that began long before Champlain's' visit in 1604. Painters popularized the area through exhibits of the seascapes and the island's beautiful mountains. Present day Bar Harbor offers a year-round population, YMCA, hospital, quaint shops, restaurants, museums, Jackson Laboratory, College of the Atlantic, and the natural attractions of famed Acadia National Park. |
