Our Collections
The Fairfield Museum and History Center has over 30,000 items in its library holdings and museum collections. Several of our largest manuscript collections relate directly to artifacts in the museum collection. The museum collection contains furniture and household items, costume and textiles, artwork, tools, militaria, dolls and toys, and architectural fragments. Visitors to the museum will see a rich variety of artifacts and documents to our current exhibition, Landscape of change. Below, we have described our museum adn library collections thematically to give researchers a better understanding of our combined collections' strengths. Research inquires are welcome.
