Frostburg Museum

Liz and John are so knowledgeable and a pleasure to talk with ! Its a must to visit if you come to frostburg. Its free but consider donating what you can while you're there im sure it helps them alot !

Nice museum detailing everyday life in Frostburg. Exhibits highlighting coal mining and military are well done.

The 2 docents went above the call of duty by staying there after hours to give us a tour. A super nice couple that knew the history like you would only hope for. This place is a hidden gem!

Nice selection and setup of museum’s pieces; 2nd floor volunteers were welcoming and eager to help with genealogical research.

It will be moving in April

I visited the Frostburg Museum with my family recently and had an experience that says a lot about both the museum and the people who care for it. We actually arrived when the museum wasn’t officially open—they were in the middle of cleaning out exhibits—but the volunteers welcomed us in anyway and generously gave us a long, thoughtful tour. It was an incredibly kind gesture and we were grateful for the time they spent sharing their knowledge with us. The museum holds a remarkable amount of local history. We got a sense not just of what the town has been through, but also what the community is doing today to make things better for the generations that come after. Even my 9-year-old said the museum was interesting, which says a lot. We came in without any personal ties to Frostburg, but by the end we felt genuinely connected to the stories of perseverance and community that the museum preserves. This is a true gem right on Main Street, and an essential stop during any visit to Western Maryland.
