Lower Lake Schoolhouse Museum

Let me introduce you to a fantastic place to visit if you find yourself near this wonderfully restored SCHOOL HOUSE in Lower Lake, California. This was the third school house in ALL of California, and is now a museum housing artifacts from the gold production lands nearby (further down Morgan Valley Road — closed in 1993) as well as period pieces that you probably won’t see anywhere else.
From the website: The Schoolhouse Museum, built in 1877 and restored and opened as a museum in 1993, hosts an interesting collection of local pioneer artifacts. The museum also a collection of Native American artifacts and a rock and mineral display. A restored schoolroom and Victorian Parlor add to the charm and authenticity. Cultural events and art shows take place in the Weaver Auditorium on the second floor.
This truly is a CHARMING & EXPERIENTIAL place to enjoy. Every time I go in I ask to ring the school bell in the tower — and I feel like 7 years old again :)
