Friends of Historic Northport

The Northport Heritage Museum (pictured above)  is located next to the Northport Community Center on Park Street near Downtown Northport.

This 1907 Victorian era home was the residence of the Josh Palmer family and descendants for many years. Restoration efforts began in 1998 and the facility was completed in October 2001.

The restoration of the Museum was funded through local donations.  Each room is named after a heritage donor family.

The Museum has many exhibits and photographs detailing the history of Northport from Native American history, settlement in 1816, through the decades to today.

Among the special exhibits are the A.H. Bean World Photographic Collection and the Peterson Military Uniform Collection.

The Museum is open by appointment. Group & school tours are available.  Contact us for details 205-339-8891 or at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .
