Woodman Museum
About us:
Established by Annie E. Woodman to advance and develop passion for history, nature, and the arts.
The Woodman Museum was founded in 1916 from a trust established by Annie E. Woodman to: “To advance and develop passion for History, Nature, and the Arts. To educate, excite, and inspire current and future generations about . . . a changing nation by preserving and exhibiting objects of historic significance, decorative and fine art, and natural science that connect Dover and its citizens to . . . the world.”
A visit to the Woodman offers an intimate and personal opportunity for visitors to explore and experience history, natural sciences, and the arts.
On the grounds of the Woodman Museum you will find the oldest Sycamore Tree in Strafford County, a Medicinal & Industrial Garden designed and installed by Strafford County Master Gardeners and a functioning Rain Garden installed several years ago in cooperation with Soak NH, the EPA, NHDES, Strafford County Master Gardeners and other local volunteers, two auxiliary exhibit sheds housing a Civil War Cannon exhibit for our 1863 12lbs Bronze-Napoleon cannon, and a Victorian funeral exhibit complete with an 1890s horse-drawn hearse.
