Rokeby Museum presents a nationally significant Underground Railroad story tucked inside a quintessential Vermont experience. Visitors will explore the history of four generations of the Robinson family, who called this site home from 1793 to 1961. Explore the Museum’s exhibitions, including an ongoing exhibition, Seeking Freedom: The Underground Railroad and the Legacy of an Abolitionist Family, and immerse yourself in the family’s history as abolitionists, artists, and farmers. The site includes trails, nine historic buildings to explore, and rotating exhibitions.
At Rokeby Museum, volunteers are integral to helping us achieve our mission. There are so many ways to get involved at Rokeby. From tours, collections work, or trail maintenance, there is something for all interests and skills.
Did you know that we have hiking trails? Our trails are open daylight hours year-round. Please note — A portion of Rokeby’s trails are closed during mud season. Please follow signage and help protect our trails.
