Trinity is in the heart of Newfoundland's history; the town has been an active settlement since at least 1588. Some sources place settlers here even earlier. The explorer, John Cabot, discovered the Western World when he arrived at Bonavista in 1497, just a short distance away. The harbour, secure in the worst gales, was irresistible. "The best and largest harbour in all the land," said the 1689 English Pilot. It is still regarded as one of the finest natural harbours in the world.

The Eriksen Premises was built in the late 1800's as a general store and tea room. It has since been restored to its original elegance and character.
