Franconia Heritage Museum

Franconia, New Hampshire

General, History, Historical Society, Specialized

A visit to the museum is like a visit to your great-grandmother's house, especially the attic, and your great-grandfather's barn. At the same time, you'll learn how families earned a living in the 'good old days' - the 1800s and 1900s. You'll see how the town's economy changed from farming to the iron industry, and to tourism. You can spend two hours viewing the extensive collection in the 10-room Victorian house, the barn and the huge connecting shed.
