The Saratoga Springs History Museum Reopens July 3

SARATOGA SPRINGS — The Saratoga Springs History Museum located in the Canfield Casino in Congress Park will re-open to the public Friday, July 3.  The Museum will be open Fridays through Sundays from 10 to 4 through the month of July, and will then re-evaluate and possibly extend hours.

James Parillo, Museum Director said  “This unprecedented closure took us all by surprise. The pandemic forced us to delay the opening of our new exhibit, The Great Hotels of Saratoga Springs.  I am excited that the public can finally view this visual display that tells the story of the Gilded Age in Saratoga Springs.”

The Museum is following all recommended COVID-19 safety protocols.  Social distancing and the wearing of facemasks are required of staff and visitors.

The History Museum was founded in 1883 and has been located in the Canfield Casino since 1912. Three floors of exhibits tell the story of the city of Saratoga Springs.  An average visit lasts 45 minutes to an hour.  Admission is $8 for adults, $7 for seniors and $5 for students.  Children under 12 are free.
