The Rumney Historical Society Museum was dedicated in August, 1994. The museum is open to the public on Saturdays, 10-2, from Memorial Day weekend to Labor Day weekend. The purpose of the society is to preserve, maintain, and display all materials which accurately reflect upon the history of Rumney-past, present, and future-and to make such artifacts readily available to all interested persons.
