Details

Housed in a 130-year-old former church, the Lyndon Area Historical Society museum is a unique and charming venue for your next social, club, business, educational, or family event. The chapel, with its impressive stained glass windows, is an ideal setting for small intimate weddings providing seating for up to 60 people. The acoustics within the chapel is ideal for musical performances as well. A piano is available for your use.

The lower level of the historical society, replete with all the charm of an old-fashioned church basement, is equipped with a fully-functioning kitchen and can accommodate parties of up to 60 people. The exhibit area of the museum showcases the area’s venerable history through both permanent and seasonal displays.

The Lyndon Area Historical Society is located just blocks from the Lyndon Bridge, on the National Registry of Historic Places and the Veteran’s Memorial. Both locations offer ideal photo opportunities.  Check us out on Facebook!
