About the Merchant's House Museum
The Merchant's House Museum is New York City's only family home preserved intact - inside and out - from the mid-19th century. Home to a prosperous merchant-class family for almost 100 years, it is complete with the family's original furnishings and personal possessions, offering a rare and intimate glimpse of domestic life from 1835-1865.
"The distinction of the Merchant's House and it is a powerful one is that it is the real thing. One simply walks through the beautiful doorway into another time and place in New York."
The New York Times
"Not so much a museum as a raw slice of history" AVENUE Magazine
