    The space is overflowing with exhibit material. It is not fancy and marked as well as you might wish, but so much to look at! Their are multiple rooms with each room covering a part of Garret...

  • By JJ Edwards
    A beautiful historical landmark and rich of history in 1800s. Garrett County history has lot of stories to tell and structures that found in this museum, from transportation, musical arts, fashion and agriculture and alot more. Free admission and the lady is very nice who help us and answers our questions regarding interesting stories we want to know. Very informative and a must see!

    This is a nice little small town museum preserving the county's history. It also seems to be the only museum in the area which keeps regular hours.
