Allegany Museum

     An abundance of coal and and a good transportation network consisting of the National Road, (the first federally funded road), the C&O Canal, and several railroads helped make Cumberland, Maryland a major manufacturing site. The museum exhibits cover breweries, glass making, and tire manufacturing along with some of the smaller businesses. Unfortunately the last of the industries closed in the 1980s.

      

    The museum has two unusual exhibits – the carvings of folk artist Claude Yoder and four amazingly detailed scenes from Sleeping Beauty that were originally displayed in the windows of Saks Fifth Avenue in New York City. They were rescued by Gary Baer, a Myersdale, PA toy store owner, and are on loan to the museum.

  

   The museum is in the process of adding a large new exhibit on the development of Cumberland as a transportation hub. We got a sneak peak and what we saw looked very interesting.

   Everything is accessible but a word of caution. The elevator acts up. It stopped working and the person that fixes it lives miles away. Tony had to thump me down two flights of stairs with a worker in front just in case he slipped.

  The parking lot is small. Our 25’ motorhome is about the limit that will fit. There’s a free parking lot on Howard Street under Interstate 68. Watch the overhead clearance.  Museum  39.65004, -78.76206
