Ogdensburg History Museum
We Share Ogdensburg's Stories.
At the Ogdensburg History Museum, we aspire to be more than simply a collection of unique objects. We are devoted to collecting, preserving, exhibiting, and interpreting the history of our city and helping people make personal connections to it. Our mission is to educate children and adults about Ogdensburg’s rich history from the settlement of indigenous people and the founding of Fort de la Presentation to Urban Renewal of the 1970s. Our vision is to deepen our understanding of our past, our present, and our future to strengthen the bonds of our community. We offer discounts for our members, as well as for children and senior citizens. We hope you’ll come visit us soon — we promise you’ll learn something new.
Museum Exhibitions
We have both permanent exhibitions and collections as well as temporary exhibits and other special events all year long. We cordially invite you to come and learn from our exhibitions. Our main purpose is to educate, and for you to learn something new each time you visit. We hope you’ll stop by soon.
