Wilder Museum

to open

The Wilder Museum of Warren County History, 51 Erie Ave., Irvine, will open for the 2023 season on Tuesday at 1 p.m. Exhibits include the Military Alcove which features uniforms, medals, and other historical items ranging from the Revolutionary War to Desert Storm. The Era Gone By exhibit room highlights the Victorian Era’s style and elegance with 19th Century dress wear, household appliances, kitchen utensils, recreational items, and more. Perhaps the most popular draw in the Era Gone by Room is the antique gun collection of Joseph DeFrees, which boasts a selection of fine weaponry such as flintlocks and 1830s dueling pistols. Other fascinating exhibits include the Seneca Nation Room that displays artifacts dating back to 6,000 B.C., excavated from the Irvine Flats by the Archaeology Department from Mercyhurst University. A gift shop has a wide variety of items available for purchase including historical books, maps, and locally-crafted artwork such as paintings, woodwork, and jewelry. The Wilder Museum is open on Tuesday, Friday, and Saturday from 1 to 5 p.m. The cost of admission is $5 per person and $1 per student.
