Fairhaven's "Underground" Museum

By
Real Estate Agent with eXp Realty

Fairhaven Pharmacy Building - museum entrance in lower rightYes it is true, Fairhaven does have an "Underground" Museum.

 

It is located in the basement of the Fairhaven Pharmacy building.  It's curator is one of the  former pharmacist there, Gordon Tweit.

 

The museum is open by appointment only and is a random collection of things Fairhaven, ranging from a large collection of Salmon Cans from the days of Fairhaven's former glory as a cannery town, to old pharmacy products and doctors instruments, to pictures of Fairhaven's past, old stereoscopic slides of the early days of Fairhaven.

It is a fascinating look at some of Fairhaven's past.

Michael,

I drive by there. I have lived here all my life. I know about the museum yet I have never been there.
