Voelker Orth Museum

The Voelker Orth Museum in Queens, NYC is a museum, bird sanctuary, and Victorian garden preserved from the 19th century. The museum tells the story of an immigrant's life 200+ years ago. The museum houses preserved period rooms chronicling life in the late 1800 and early 1900s. The house was in the Voelcker family for almost its entire history; it looks today much like it did upon its construction. Here are some of the "must see" items at Voelker Orth Museum.
