New Hampshire Telephone Museum

Quinn Sykes

A wonderful little museum. Details the birth and adoption of the telephone. Hundreds of telephones on display with explanations on how they worked and how the technology evolved. There are also interactive displays (who doesn't like to tap out Morse code, dial a rotary phone, or operate a switchboard). The staff is polite and informative too. I highly recommend if you like history and technology.

I recommend checking this place out! I thought it was interesting so I took a bunch of pictures while I was there.

A quiet place which fascinated me because I remember a number of these telephones while I was, basically aging. I especially remember the Mickey mouse telephone. I visited years ago with my son. He wasn't very interested and I really didn't get a chance to read all the information with the displays. Groupon had a discount ticket for sale, so I thought I would visit again. I'm glad I did. You can download the app and have a self guided tour. Staff was very friendly and Wi-Fi worked well. They had a bathroom which was clean and accessible for people with wheelchairs or mobility issues. Interactive displays were shut down due to covid-19. They even had displays where you would need your QR reader to access more information. They had displays showing the contributions of African Americans to the telephone industry. They currently have a small display about the railroad history around Warner. If you enjoy history and nostalgia, I would recommend a visit. Very young children may not be interested in this. Face mask required to enter building.

This museum was fabulous! We used the audio tour app and listened to the information as we went around. Small, not overwhelming but packed with really cool looking phones & old systems. Truely fascinating to see & hear about it all. Plus, there was a little side exhibit about the Railroad history, too. Very nice way to spend a couple of hours :)
