House with what is termed the "Lunenburg Bump", or Victorian dormer usually combined with the door; Lunenburg (2006 population: 2,317) is a Canadian port town in Lunenburg County, Nova Scotia. Situated on the province's South Shore, Lunenburg is located on a peninsula at the western side of Mahone Bay. Old Town Lunenburg was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1995. Lunenburg was founded in 1753 and was named in honour of the King of Great Britain and Ireland, (George II), who was also the ruler of Brunswick-Lunenburg. The architecture in the old town is a mix of British Colonial, Victorian and Carpenter Gothic. Source: Wikipedia; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page (accessed 2/8/2008)
