Middletown History Museum in the Historic Train Station

Picture
Our current exhibit is Middletown at War: The American Revolution. This original exhibit focuses on the war as it occurred in the modern borders of Middletown, the events that happened here, and the people who lived and fought here. Also available for sneak preview will be items related to the train station's history and other transportation methods in Middletown.

Renovations to the Historic Train Station, which houses the Middletown History Museum, will soon be underway. Until those are complete, the Middletown History Museum will be open to the public on specific dates. We invite you to view the building and preview our exhibits (which will be further enhanced after the renovations are complete)! Planned dates and times are below.
