Heritage MuseumWelcome...
The Franconia Heritage Museum is located in an 1878 New England Farm House with attached barn and sheds. The Museum opened in 1998 with a collection preserved by Sarah Nelson Welch, great granddaughter of Luke Brooks, one of the first white men to observe the Old Man of the Mountains in Franconia Notch in 1805. Many other local families have contributed their artifacts to the museum, so that it reflects life in Franconia since the town's founding in 1772. A visit to our fully furnished farmhouse is like a trip to your great grandparents home. Permanent Displays: Iron Furnance Old Man of the Mountains Local Lodging Farm Equipment Current Featured Exhibit: "Up & Down Main Street" Franconia's Businesses Past & Present
