Site Admission

Our site admission provides visitors with exclusive access to our historic tavern museum, rotating exhibitions, and more. Visitors interested in viewing exhibitions without taking a tour, or those who arrive after tours have sold out for the day, can purchase an Exhibits-Only Pass. When the site is not open, visitors can explore the grounds and gardens, as long as there are no private events.

With site admission to KTM&HC, visitors can:

  • Take one guided museum tour.
    • Tours are scheduled Wednesdays through Sundays at 11:30 a.m., 1 p.m., and 2:30 p.m. Click on “Buy Tickets” for more information about daily schedules.
    • Museum interpreters lead visitors through the historic Keeler Tavern building’s period rooms as they tell the stories of some of the site’s former residents, from Benjamin Hoyt to Cass and Julia Gilbert.
  • View current exhibitions in the Gilbert Wing and Carriage Barn. See what’s on display here.
  • Explore the grounds, take the self-guided “Gilberts in the Garden” tour, and walk the brick paths of the historic walled garden.
