Shelburne Museum

Shelburne Museum

Shelburne Museum is a huge outdoor museum with 39 buildings spread across beautiful grounds near Lake Champlain. It holds art, quilts, toys, and even a real steamboat that sits on dry land.

It is famous for feeling like a whole village where every building holds a different surprise to explore. Families love wandering from a lighthouse to a carousel to a covered bridge all in one day.

The Steamboat Ticonderoga

A giant old steamboat rests right on the grass, and you can climb aboard to see the cabins and engine. It once carried passengers across Lake Champlain long ago.

The Carousel and Toys

The museum keeps a hand-carved carousel and rooms full of antique dolls, trains, and toys. Kids enjoy seeing how children played many years before.

Gardens and Grounds

Colorful flower gardens bloom across the wide green lawns in spring and summer. Walking paths connect all the buildings, making it easy to explore slowly.
