Vital to every historic place like Portland, local historical museums are an underrated source of knowledge and fascinating enjoyment. OHSM is an example of how to put together a museum that not only teaches, but entertains.

The museum was created in 1898 and receives about 44,000 visitors annually. It houses the Portland Penny that decided the city’s name.

Portland has a unique heritage and it's all referenced here. A cornucopia of fascinating historical treasures, stories and memorabilia.
