House
The Perry County Historical Society owns and operates a circa 1840 home located 1 block South
of Somerset's Public Square. It serves as a museum, gift shop, meeting place and focal point for
the society. The house was purchased by the society in 1980 so that it could be saved from
being torn down.
Many volunteers have spent countless hours helping to restore our house. It features a working
1930s kitchen, Victorian parlor and bedroom. The restoration is an ongoing project.
The house is also available for meetings, showers and family gatherings. E-mail or call for
details.
Open the Second Saturday of every month from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. Other times by appointment.
