It co-sponsors a walking tour on the history of Kingston General Hospital for $5, but the museum is free (donations accepted). Usually not busy, since it's small and hard to find. Visit time: Two hours or less, including the tour.

Big, very elaborate old Protestant church of architectural and historical interest. Visit time: 30 min max.
