All housed in an 1858 Mansion
Part of the excitement of the museum is its setting -- a beautiful Italianate home built as a private residence by Galena merchant Daniel Barrows. Much of the home's original detail still exists. So step back in time and explore Galena's past in the ambience of 19th century surroundings. In-depth history of the building.
