WELCOME TO





THE FREDERICKSBURG AREA MUSEUM



Welcome to the Museum!  Housed in historic Town Hall/Market House (c. 1816),
FAM’s mission—to collect, research, interpret, teach and preserve the history of
our region—is the foundation of the Museum’s programs and events, exhibitions,
educational initiatives, and collecting activities that touch the lives of all
citizens and help them make meaningful and personal connections to history.

THE COLLECTION



FAM’s collection of objects span more than ten thousand years of history! 
Ranging from Native American artifacts to Black Lives Matter posters, the
objects support the vast and rich stories of our community and offer insight
into the lives of those that have paddled our river, walked our streets, worked
our fields, run our businesses and government, attended our schools and
churches, and participate in national movements.
