Visit the historic Village of Milan, birthplace of America’s greatest inventor, Thomas A. Edison and a National Trust for Historic Preservation Distinctive Destination. The Milan Historical Museum is located in the heart of Milan’s historic district and offers an excursion into the past with new interactive exhibits. With six buildings to explore, MHM offers something for everyone.
Newton Arts Building	Galpin Residence
Opened in 1971, the Edna Roe Newton Memorial Building, stately in its architecture, houses the collection of one Milan family, acquired from around the world.	The Galpin House, named for the doctor who constructed the house in 1846, is now the center of the Milan Historical Museum's campus.
Doll & Toy House	Sayles House
The Doll & Toy House features the outstanding Mildred Smith Coulton Doll Collection, over 350 charming examples of china, bisque, wax, paper mache and composition dolls.	The 1843 Sayles House is fully furnished and features a weaving room, a child's playroom and an upground cellar.
Blacksmith Shop & Carriage Shed	General Store
The Blacksmith Shop is packed with the smithy's tools of the trade. Adjacent is the Carriage Shed where buggies, fire equipment, tools, and farm implements remind us of the days before steam and gas powered engines.	The Lockwood, Smith & Co. General Store is a replica of the typical town market where prescriptions could be filled, calico and lace bought for a special dress, and exotic coffee beans ground to your liking.
Four Seasons Statue Garden	Ohio & Milan History
The Four Seasons Perennial Garden, graced by marble statues representing Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter is just one of many quiet niches.	If you are not aware of the unique heritage of our village of Milan and the land grant area of which it is a part, then we would like to give you a look back in time.
