Buggy Museum of Mifflinburg

Went to the Buggy museum the other day. It is based in what was then the outskirts of Mifflinburg, during its heyday, it had over 200 buggy making companies, many from the same families. Its buggies were well know and relatively cheap for that time, costing 87 dollars, when a worker made 28 dollars a month. The museum itself consists of 4 buildings, a residence, visitor center /​barn, buggy making shop and large storage barn. It tells the story of the Heiss coach Works, and their family that ran a buggy making operation in the building, everyone in the family was involved. They eventually died out in the 1920’s with the advent of the automobile. They also made sleighs, pony carts and had a variety of other business to keep them going when things were tight.
1 hour tour, 8.00 admission (7.00 with AAA), pretty fun thing to do if youre in the area. Not wheelchair accessable, though there is a picture book with photos of everything. Our guide was a town resident, very knowledgable on history, info and so forth. very friendly.
