Ealy House Museum Open

Step back in time at the Ealy House Museum, a beautifully restored mid-1800s home that tells the story of New Albany's local history. The New Albany Plain Township Historical Society has carefully preserved this historic building and filled it with fascinating artifacts that bring the past to life.

Admission is completely free, making this a budget-friendly outing for families curious about their community's heritage. Visitors can enjoy guided tours or simply chat with knowledgeable hosts about local history and the museum's collections. The museum welcomes guests on Sunday afternoons throughout the summer, giving you plenty of opportunities to visit at your own pace. Whether your kids are history buffs or you're just looking for an educational afternoon activity, this is a welcoming place to explore New Albany's past together.
