We invite you to unlock more than 300 years of history and learn how Morris Plains grew from a single saw mill in 1685 to the present-day "Community of Caring." Visit the Morris Plains Museum for a firsthand look at the Squirrel Tail Hand Pumper, Monahan's Band instruments, Davenport's caricatures, and many other treasures from our collection, including photographs, maps, costumes, and artwork. Take part in our guided tours and educational programs to discover even more.

The Museum is open 10:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. on Saturdays, or by appointment. We are located at 51 Jim Fear Drive in the lower level of the Community Center, rear entrance. (A Google map of the museum's location is available as an interactive web page that lets you zoom in or out and switch to a satellite view, and a Community Center grounds map is available as a PDF document, which can be magnified using the Zoom tool).

PLEASE NOTE that the museum is CLOSED on the following Saturdays as of June 30, 2012:
