The Frontier Culture Museum shows how a new and unique culture evolved in early America from its roots in the Old World. Living History interpreters work in original and reconstructed buildings from Europe, Africa, and America to illustrate how diverse people and cultures blended together into a new American way of life.

Visit Europe and America's past at eleven historic exhibits at the museum site in Staunton, Virginia. See rare and minor breed animals, walk through authentic gardens, help harvest period crops, watch a blacksmith at work, and visit with the living history interpreters to share a lesson of courage, heritage and determination. Exit 222 from I81
