Scale Model of Woods Hole Village in 1895

Gallery 3 (Permanent Exhibit)

This impressive, room-size model of Woods Hole Village in 1895 was crafted by 37 museum volunteers in 1982. The year 1895 was chosen because most present-day activities had begun about this time: ferries to the islands, scientific research and summer tourism.
