Ridge House Museum

Built in 1875, the Ridge House Museum is a typical Gothic revival style home furnished to portray the lifestyle of a middle class family. The Ridge House structure and grounds have been restored and are maintained to their late Victorian roots. Experience the customs and values of Victorian rural life through interactive tours, interpretive programs, and special events.

Let your kids imagination grow in our new interactive, totally hands-on, innovative, and creative space, the Discovery Den! Have fun with the whole family while exploring our history.
