The Mechanicsburg Museum Association was founded in 1975 in a community effort to preserve the Stationmaster's House, a historic Mechanicsburg landmark, from destruction. Since its founding, the Association has preserved and promoted Mechanicsburg's unique history with educational programs, gallery exhibits, and by acquiring four more historic buildings in the area. The MMA owns and preserves four Mechanicsburg buildings built by the Cumberland Valley Railroad: The 1866 Stationmaster's House, The 1886 Freight Station, The 1867 Passenger Station and the 1899 Washington Street Station. The buildings are open to the public during regular museum hours and at special events, such as Jubilee Day, and other community celebrations. The 1801 Frankenberger Tavern, Mechanicsburg's oldest known building, is open seasonally and for special events. Admission is free to all normal exhibits. Our main office is located in the Passenger Station at 2 West Strawberry Alley, with exhibits on..
