Grimsby's Best Known Door

Grimsby's best known door is straight-forward - it is the front door to the Museum.  The regency-style entrance of the Grimsby Museum was the original doorway from the Marlatat Inn (1855) that once stood on Main Street.  Nothing gets retrieved for Toronto's best known door.  The majority searches bring Doors Open Ontario results from over the years. We can find the world's most famous doors: 221b Baker Street, London St. Peter's Basilica, Rome The Columbus Doors The Gates of Paradise, Florence 10 Downing Street, London We can identify some famous movie doors: The round hobbit door The Wizard of Oz door to the Emerald City Noting Hill's blue door The wood entrance gates to Jurassic Park It does seem unusual that there aren't more articles on specific doors to see.  Doors hold a special place in literature - a metaphor or allegory symbolizing change and transformation. To be given the key to a door is significant.  There are many designs and embellishments to doors over the millennia   The oldest door?  A Neolithic wood door was found in Switzerland that is more than 5,000 years old.   So here's our wonderful Museum front door at Open Doors last week, and then its representation as an ornament on last year's "Doors of Grimsby Christmas Tree" at the Fantasy of Trees. I took the picture and the next day the door ornament was gone.  I guess it was too cute - I thought it was.
