The town of Bracebridge, Ontario is home to almost 16,000 residents and is the seat of the Muskoka District Municipality.

The town was built around a waterfall on the Muskoka River within the centre of town, and is known for its other nearby waterfalls, of which, High Falls and Wilson's Falls are the most famous. It was first incorporated in 1875. It was named after a book, Bracebridge Hall that Washington Irving wrote, which the postmaster in charge of naming towns was reading at the time. The same novel also provided the name for neighboring Gravenhurst.

The township is the seat of the district government, a centre of tourism for the Muskoka region, and home to several historical sites, like for instance the Inn at the Falls, Woodchester Villa, and the Silver Bridge, which joins Ecclestone Drive with Manitoba Street. The Silver Bridge was repaired in 2002. Bracebridge is also the home of the Muskoka Cottage Brewery.

Modern settlement of the township began in the 1860s, beginning at first with several log huts. The Muskoka colonization road had been completed to the first falls on Muskoka River's north branch by the year 1862. Entrepreneurs began to take advantage of the water power of the region. With the advent of steamship service on Lake Muskoka a few years afterward, the Town of Bracebridge prospered as the main distribution hub for the region.
