Year-Round
Museums
Step inside a beautifully preserved 130-year-old Victorian mansion and discover Greenville's history firsthand. The Eveleth-Crafts-Sheridan Historical House, a crown jewel of the Moosehead Historical Society, offers an immersive tour through period furnishings, textiles, and artifacts, often led by costumed guides.
The property also includes the Lumbermen's Museum, in the original carriage house, showcasing the region's timber industry with authentic tools like crosscut saws, pike poles, and Peaveys. Just down the road, the Center for Moosehead History features one of Maine's most impressive Native American tool exhibits alongside rotating displays on regional life and culture.
It's an ideal rainy-day activity for families and history lovers. Call ahead for current tour times and days. The full experience includes the house, logging museum, and Center for Moosehead History.
