New this year
Claude Shannon Exhibit
2016 is the centennial year of celebrating the
birth of Gaylord native son Claude Shannon.
An extensive array of
interesting items from the kitchen and parlor of times past are
displayed in a special exhibit in the back room. A step back in
time awaits those entering the museum from our parking lot entrance.
Be sure to check out our gift
shop located in the front of the museum for local items, history
publications, and our annual calendar filled with historic photos of
Otsego County.
The Otsego County Historical Museum opened in 1992.
Gordon & Marlene Everett generously provided the
Historical Society with the museum building by gift and nominal
purchase.
The dream of having a permanent location to display
the history of Otsego County has become a reality for future generations
to enjoy.
