The Plumb House Museum

The Plumb House was built between 1802 and 1804, during the time of Thomas Jefferson’s presidency. This historic house, the oldest frame dwelling in Waynesboro, was home to five generations of the Plumb Family before it was acquired by the WHF. The house was caught in the midst of the Civil War Battle of Waynesboro on March 2, 1865.

From April-October 30, 2025, the Plumb House Museum will be open 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM every Thursday. The museum is also available by appointment. Please call the museum at 540-943-3943 to make an appointment.
