Tours last approximately one hour.


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.
