DISCOVER THE BRUNSWICK HERITAGE MUSEUM
Brunswick Heritage Museum - Immerse Yourself.
Welcome to the Brunswick Heritage Museum! We are dedicated to celebrating and preserving the rich history of Brunswick, Maryland. Our exhibits trace the town’s journey—from its Native American roots to the transformative impact of the B&O Railroad and C&O Canal.
Immerse yourself in interactive displays, educational videos, and compelling community stories that bring history to life. Whether you're a history enthusiast, a train buff, or simply curious, there's something here for you!
Don’t miss our impressive 1,700-square-foot HO Scale model railroad, which brings the B&O Metropolitan Subdivision to life. Beginning at the west end of Brunswick’s rail yard, it extends eastward through Montgomery County and concludes at Washington, D.C.'s Union Station.
Best of all, admission to the museum is free! As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, we rely on your generosity to keep our doors open and history alive.
Help Our Cause
The Brunswick Heritage Museum offers free admission, but we rely on donations to maintain the building, preserve artifacts, and share our community’s story. Every gift makes a difference. Support the museum today.
