Beautiful grounds, fun fundraisers and lots of Vermont history

Spent an hour in the visitors center absorbing the really well done exhibit. I thought a few places could have benefitted from updated language (one placard uses the verb "employ" in relation to slave labor for example; a few instances where it felt like the narrative crept into "white savior" territory) but overall educational and interesting. Will be back for the guided tour to see the house.

Little gem! This museum is doing a lot to unearth stories and tales and histories about freedom seekers. The staff is incredibly knowledgeable and passionate!

This place fuels the fires of conscience, if well developed, or, Lights those fires, if not. If you CAN think, it's manna. If you can't, it's no news. If you've at all struggled, it's inspirational. It's a light in a dark place. It's down to earth real, and, at the same, somethings only the soul can feel. It's both history in the making, and profound lessons, still ripe for the taking...IF... you are attentive. For humanity almost never learns the lessons of history. And stories ring the same and rhyme, over thousands of years... Great staff. Lots to see. Lots to identify with for homesteaders...writers...strugglers.

Questions & Answers

What does it cost to see everything ?

$10 admission, but I think a private guided tour is $4 extra

My mother used to clean the museum years ago does it still have the glass floor?

Hi Tammy, Rokeby Museum has many large glass windows, but no glass floors. I hope you will stop by to see this treasure in person! Rokeby Museum's Underground Railroad Center Exhibit is open daily 10–5 from mid-May to late October. The Robinson house, however, is not open every day. It may be seen by guided tour only, with tours at 11:00 and 2:00 on Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. Admission is $10 for adults, $9 for seniors, and $8 for students; children younger than 5 are admitted free. Admission is free on Tuesday afternoons from 1 to 5. I hope this helps.
