This is a wonderful small museum that packs in a lot. The inside gallery has lots of historical memorabilia collected from residents in the area and beyond. The tall older gentleman with glasses working at the reception/welcome desk was the friendliest person you'll meet. Charming place that deserves a visit if you're in the area already and if you have an interest in this kind of thing.
