Former Church turned into a Museum about Historic Howard County and Ellicott City. Lovely historical facility run by a staff thats knowledgeable about the local history. Its also a Wedding reception Venue, literally across the street from the Ellicott City Courthouse. You need to contact them about Covid-19 restrictions.

This place is so cool! the stained glass is beautiful from the inside, and its just a really cozy area. the building itself looks very brooding and dramatic, and the area around it is super friendly (i love the landscaping and all of the sitting areas). whenever its open, i love stopping by and taking in some of the history, too. the museum has really nice pieces of furniture and clothing from howard county and especially ellicott citys past. its a really quiet spot, so its great for some silent reflection, too. honestly, i love just walking around these streets and coming up by this church and the courthouse, as the winding streets make for a fun journey from the busier main street. in the warmer months, the greenery is really appealing, as there are plenty of lush plants in this area, giving it an incredibly welcoming air. its cute and free! what more could you want?

Host of the museum was an absolute pleasure.

Great place to hear a local authorities discuss mysteries surrounding Edgar Allen Poe on a Saturday evening!This was my first visit here and I was impressed by the professional displays in a compact space.

I went to go see a jazz band here. The place was cozy, but nice! The staff was amazing. Id definitely come back.

Wonderful birthday party here. Great space and nice to see exhibits. Big room gets noisy obviously but escaping to a back room is an option.

COVID19 restrictions!

The passion for Ellicott Citys history is shown by the artifacts, the tours, the people who work there and the museum itself is so beautiful! I learned so much and had so much fun exploring the museum!

Lots of artifacts on display. Knowledgeable staff on the history including a staff archaeologist. Museum inside an historic church.

An inspired building, a former Presbyterian church with original stained glass windows, a bequest from the late Mrs. James Clark.We were disappointed that the artifacts and exhibits focused on Ellicott City, very little about Howard County. Would like more information about families and history of the entire County.

Lots of attention to detail. Well organized, worth your time

Very nice variety of Ellicott City history as well as Maryland history.

Thank you for preserving history and teaching the public. We enjoyed our visit there.

Lovely little museum. I recomendó checkinh it out for an hour or two.

Very knowledgeable staff. Worthwhile to visit!

I attended a Sunday morning yoga class here. Its the perfect location for peace and tranquility.

Has restorative yoga on sunday

Fantastic place! A must see. The organ is a real attraction and dont mind the ghosts. (Mostly harmless)

Charming Historic building over filled with artifacts, just steps away from food and shops on Main St.
