Masstown

Masstown (2021 population: 156), formerly Cobequid, is a farming community in Nova Scotia, Canada, located approximately 17 kilometres (11 mi) from Truro.

Once an old Acadian settlement, Masstown was the site of the first Acadian church in Nova Scotia, and a cairn is erected at the nearby United Church to commemorate this former landmark.

The subsequent Catholic Church inspired the community's name: "Mass" town.

The small farming community has a local market and now a Tim Hortons and Greco.

Masstown Market is a popular halfway stop for people travelling between Moncton and Halifax.
