Tranquille Sanatorium

Tranquille Sanatorium was built in 1907 to treat tuberculosis. A small community known as Tranquille was built around it. The community included gardens, houses, a farm, fire department, and more facilities. In 1958, the hospital closed and was reopened in 1959 to treat the mentally ill. It closed permanently in 1983. Today it is uninhabited but is planned for demolition as the surrounding land is converted to a resort. The farm is now currently in use again under the name Tranquille Farm Fresh and tours of the grounds are now offered.
