I got by nails done in the kitchen at @Dyckman Farmhouse Museum here in NYC, because spaces like this need to see more Black bodies at leisure. (Please Note: There is a floor covering down and art was temporarily removed to protect it from any dust) Loe (Loe007 on insta) you a real one for agreeing to come on site to do my nails in a dark, musty (yet much loved) kitchen in the basement of a house museum! It was an experience! #selfcare #museumtok #blackwomenoftiktok #blackmentalhealthmatters

If you love history, architecture, and folks who are engaging about these topics please visit the Dyckman Farmhouse museum. Fabiola and Holly are extremely knowledgeable about the place and surrounding area! (they will answer any question you have about the house and surrounding area) The care put into this place by everyone who is involved is very apparent. Really enjoyed my time here when I visited on October 2nd. What's super cool is in the back is a rebuilt Hessian hut using all original materials found on the old lands of the Dyckman property. This truly is a hidden gem in Manhattan. Tickets are required to see this place but they are super affordable ($ 3 on their website and no fees) and well worth the admission. Another highlight is you can do a self-guided tour and take your time admiring all the rooms in the house. What else needs to be said: please visit this great museum! Tip: they do keep the door in the front locked however just knock and someone will greet you.

A previous reviewer, Monica Matos, put it aptly, "a hidden jewel". I will not go into the history, as I often do on many of my reviews but suffice to say that the farmhouse was probably already built by circa 1784, and the Dyckman museum site does a great job on the history ( https://dyckmanfarmhouse.org/ ). What I will point out is the notion that the farm stretched from the Hudson River to the Harlem, imagine that. All the buildings, large and small, as far as you can see, came after. Quite amazing the place has survived and been preserved here in the heart of such a densely populated area.

Recently went as part of my child's class trip, it was very interesting plus a lot of fun for kids and adults alike. The children were able to eat their lunch on the picnic benches in the backyard, it was a chilly day so the adults were freezing since we weren't running around like the kids were, I imagine the yard is pretty nice and cool in the summer. We've also been there as a family for their Fall Festival (some pictures are from then) and we had a lot of fun, drinking beer and apple cider. Very nice historical place to visit.

Incredible history, beautifully preserved, and I really appreciate that those who are in charge of preserving and honoring this historic site also discuss the history of the many enslaved and free people who built and made this house what it is. They honor all parts of the Dyckman Farmhouse history and they are actively working to find as much information as they can. Such a wild thing to see in New York City and to be able to walk through it was a walk back in time.

A lovely historical venue, for anyone who would like to time travel back 235 years. As an added bonus, interesting contemporary artwork complementing the antique interior furnishings, and quite an interesting exhibit on Inwood's Japanese population between the First and Second World Wars. And definitely tour the garden to see the magnificent old trees and outbuildings.

Description
The Dyckman House, now the Dyckman Farmhouse Museum, is the oldest remaining farmhouse on Manhattan island, a vestige of New York City's rural past. The Dutch Colonial-style farmhouse was built by William Dyckman, c.1785, and was originally part of over 250 acres of farmland owned by the family.
