The Southborough Historical Museum is a little-known gem in town. Nestled behind Pilgrim Church, the tiny white building – which used to be a one-room schoolhouse located at the corner of Flagg and Deerfoot Roads – holds treasures from Southborough’s past. You’ll find everything from artifacts of our rural heritage to a fascinating display about the Burnett Apothecary.
On Sundays throughout the month of October, you’ll have the chance to visit the museum and check out the exhibits for yourself. The museum will be open from 1:00 to 4:00 pm every Sunday this month, including the one coming up. Admission is free.
The museum is located at 25 Common Street in the historic Flagg School just behind Pilgrim Church. While you’re there, you can also pick up tickets for the upcoming Haunted New England presentation.
