The Woodstock Museum

 "Preserving the Past for the Future"

The Woodstock Museum of Shenandoah County, Virginia, Inc. was founded in 1969 as a non-profit Virginia corporation with the purpose of stimulating interest in the early history of Woodstock and the surrounding area, and in the manners and customs of the people who lived here, and to collect, preserve, and display visible evidences of their way of life.

What We Do

TOURS:

The Woodstock Museum consists of two 18th century houses located within a block of what is locally known as "The Old Shenandoah County Courthouse," the oldest active courthouse west of the Blue Ridge Mountains.  Both of the Woodstock Museum houses, known as the Marshall House & the Wickham House, have historic connections to the Old Courthouse.

The Museum's houses are open, free of charge, to the Public MAY - OCTOBER.  Volunteer Docents offer tours during those months on THURSDAY - SATURDAY, from 1 pm until 4 pm.  Other times are available by appointment (visit our Contact Us page for more info).  NO ADMISSION FEE!

EVENTS:

Guest Speakers are featured 4 times each year, on the 4th Thursday of the months of March, May, August and October.  The talks are held at 7:00 pm, with the location announced on the News & Events  page of this website.  The events are open to the public.

Other Events include an annual Antiques Appraisal Fair, and a celebration of the Museum's Anniversary with a Crafts & History Fair in August - dates and times are to be announced.

"Preserving the Past for the Future":

Our motto says it all!  Come see our extensive collection of local / regional artifacts...from Jacob Fry & Caleb Davis tall case clocks to a homemade copper moonshine still.  The Museum is home to a bit of everything that made life possible and pleasurable to the people of our community in times long past.

The Wickham House & the Marshall Annex are now home to the over 400 piece "Baughman Family Collection," a representation of Henry Baughman's estate inventory circa 1807.
