Keeler Tavern Museum & History Center

Keeler Tavern Museum & History Center is a beautiful, four-acre site in the heart of Ridgefield, CT that preserves and interprets hundreds of years of local and national history. We provide educational and cultural programs that connect past and present, with a focus on our former residents' experiences in the colonial era through the mid-20th-century. We preserve and interpret our site’s historic buildings, robust collections, and diverse stories, creating a space for ongoing learning and open dialogue about how the events of the past connect to the present and shape our future. We strive to be a trusted and dynamic center of learning, committed to building the narrative about our site’s and nation’s history. We aim to promote engagement, curiosity, and critical thinking about the varied experiences that have shaped – and continue to shape – our communities.
