You couldn't ask for nicer, more welcoming staff. Highly recommended for your short list of things to do in Middlebury. ! Leave enough time to enjoy the exhibits and read the detailed displays. There's a lot to explore in the intimate museum, from science to fashion to furniture. Some activities for kids, too.

Delightful way to learn the town's history and view pieces from the past that you won't find anywhere else. Be sure to speak with the staff member as you will learn a great deal! Also have to add that even if you're not a history buff, you'll love the gift shop. Really unique items.

Really cool museum with an interesting permanent collection and some cool rotating exhibits as well. If you have kids ask for the scavenger hunt. Costs $10 for general admission, some discounts available for seniors/students/other groups

Was in Middlebury for a wedding and stopped in to the museum on a walk around town before the festivities. The museum was adorable. There was an antique train display that was pretty cool, and all of the other random historical items were interesting to see and read about. The gallery portion of the museum was also really neat. My husband and I loved the artwork. The staff was also extremely warm...

Inexpensive slice of history. Volunteer was incredibly sweet and enjoyable to talk to as she was very passionate about her job. I didn't enjoy the local artist displaying their stuff in the middle of the museum and felt it was very unnecessary from a patrons perspective. Definitely worth stopping in for only $5.00 and enjoy the...

A wonderful, secluded, and yet conpletely in-touch museum focusing on the beauty, splendor, and vibrancy of Addison County history. Focused on both public exhibits and active archiving projects, it's a gem within the green tapestry of Vermont's gorgeous landscape. The curators are engaging and informed, filled with both a passion...
