- OUR HISTORY | Burinnl
Burin is a wonderful place to call home, a beautiful destination to explore, and a smart choice for business. It’s easy to see why our community continues to grow, why new businesses are setting up shop, and why visitors keep coming back. Discover for yourself all that the Town of Burin has to offer! Our History Burin is a town located on the Burin Peninsula in Placentia Bay, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. The peninsula is affectionately nicknamed “The Boot” due to its shape resembling a boot when viewed on a map, with the town of Burin situated near the “heel.” Burin lies approximately 318 kilometers from the provincial capital, St. John’s. Although permanent settlement in Burin began in the early 18th century, historical records suggest that French fishermen had been exploring and fishing in the area even earlier. The town was incorporated in 1950, originally encompassing Burin North, Ship Cove, and Burin Bay. In 1970, the town’s boundaries were expanded to include Collin's Cove, Path End, Bull's Cove, Black Duck Cove, Long Cove, Green Hill, Little Salmonier, Hollett's Farm, Burin Bay Arm, and Salt Pond. According to the 2021 Census of Population conducted by Statistics Canada, the town of Burin had a population of 2,237, residing in 1,008 of its 1,155 total private dwellings. This represents a 3.4% decrease from its 2016 population of 2,315. With a land area of 34.49 km² (13.32 sq mi), Burin had a population density of 64.9 people per square kilometre (168.0 per square mile) in 2021. The crossed instruments are burins, instruments for engraving on stone; this emblem is appropriate considering the abundance of rocks and stones throughout the community. The crested blue ripples in the background signify the sea, the source of Burin's livelihood. This coat of arms was designed by the former Town Manager, Keith E. Warren, and a local graphic artist, Boyd Holloway. Newfoundland, an island jutting out into the Atlantic Ocean, was discovered in 1497 by (John Cabot), a Genoese sailor who sailed from Bristol, England, on an expedition to discover new lands for the then King of England, Henry VII. According to sagas - ancient tales of Iceland - the Norsemen visited the island of Newfoundland over 1000 years ago. Immediately after its discovery, European ships began fishing along our shores. An important centre in those early days was St. John's harbour where ships first entered before proceeding in small companies to various parts of the coast. A brisk business was carried on there with Spain and Portugal by bartering such commodities as salt, wine and fruits for English cutlery, cordage and woollens. Leaving the harbour these ships would proceed to designated places to prosecute the fishery. At the close of the fishing season, St. John's harbour would again be their rendezvous- before returning to Europe - so that they would escape marauding pirates who seized and plundered lonely vessels sailing the ocean. The 1929 Tsunami is a significant time in Burin's History with both many tragic and heroic stories significantly documented in literature and newsprint. We have dedicated an entire section to the 1929 Newfoundland Tidal Wave and our Tidal Wave Memorial. A safe harbour, such as Burin's landlocked haven was undoubtedly a favourite resort for these European fishermen. A very lucrative fishing industry was carried on according to Historians such as Prowse who relates that in 1697 the French prohibited Spanish Biscayans from fishing in such areas as Mortiris (Mortier), Buria Chumea (Little Burin) and Buria Audia (Great Burin). Great rivalry was then being exercised as more countries began to need and greedily harvest the great wealth of the Newfoundland waters. Burin was naturally affected by this rivalry in its early history because of its geography, as its physical features and natural topography provided all the essentials for a successful and remunerative fishing voyage. Since farmland was scarce or even non-existent, Burin became the centre of an important fishing region - next in importance to Placentia, the French capital of Newfoundland. All maritime pursuits such as boat building, sail making, iron works, etc. were a natural result of this concentration of fishing. The town of Burin is located on the Burin Peninsula in Placentia Bay. It is situated on the Eastern side of the peninsula and on the western side of Burin Inlet, which extends inland about 8km. The town is really an amalgamation of several communities which surround Burin Proper. In 1950 the town was incorporated and included: Burin North, Ship Cove and Burin Bay. Then in 1970 the town limits were expanded to include Collin's Cove, Kirby's Cove, Path End, Bull's Cove, Black Duck Cove, Long Cove, Little Salmonier, Burin Bay Arm, and Salt Pond. The name Burin itself is of debatable origins. Two possible suggestions are offered as to the origin of our name: (1) from a French word BURINE meaning engraving tool. Legend has it that a French sailor was standing on the deck of his ship holding a Burine and, struck by the resemblance between it and the harbour they were entering, named it thus; (2) from a Gaelic word Bureen meaning rocky place, named so by early Irish settlers. The French word is the acceptable version in use today. Burin is well known today for its breathtaking scenery, friendly people and charming ways. The moratorium of the early 90's stagnated the offshore fishing industry allowing the Town of Burin an opportunity to modernize and concentrate it's future in education, health care, technology, and tourism.

Mayoral Message "Welcome to the Town of Burin's official website. Burin is a town on the Burin Peninsula, located on the south coast of Newfoundland Labrador. This town is steeped in rich history and scenic beauty. In the early 1500's Burin was one of the favourite sub-settlements of the French in Placentia Bay. One of the oldest towns on the Burin Peninsula, it was incorporated in 1950. Burin has developed with the fishery throughout the years, from the Basque fishermen who frequented our waters, to the banking schooners, to having the first fresh frozen fish plant in the province. Our town has much to offer. View our history in the heritage houses, enjoy a summer evening concert at the Oldest Colony Trust building, or experience our natural beauty and environment on our harbour front boardwalk or on the Salt Pond Walking Trail. With much development potential, a modern regional health care facility, beautiful churches, modern housing developments, well-equipped schools, including a College of the North Atlantic Campus, Burin offers may amenities of a larger centre with a small town atmosphere. In the years 2000, 2006 and again in 2015, Burin was the winner of the Tidy Towns competition in the 2001 - 4000 population category. I see Burin as a proud, progressive town with a strong sense of history and culture. I thank you for taking time to visit our website and invite you to contact the Town Office if you have any questions or would like more information about our Town. I hope to see you in the historic Town of Burin sometime in the future." Mayor, Kevin Lundrigan
