Located on the Avalon Penninsula portion of Newfoundland, the scenic town of Harbour Grace has a deep and rich history spanning almost 500 years. From the pirating fights of Peter Easton and the pioneering flights of Amelia Earhart to historical sites and buildings, Harbour Grace has long been the centre of excitement, adventure and beauty.The town, founded by Francis I of France in 1517, is thought to have derived its name as a transfer from Harve de Grace, the name used for LeHarve, France. W.A. Munn stated that the community was named by 'fishermen from the English Channel who knew well of LeHarve de Grace, the sea port town of Paris at the mouth of the River Seine.'
