Due to an interior water leak on 1/23/25 caused by extreme cold, the Johnstown Flood Museum ONLY is temporarily closed. Thankfully, nothing of historic significance was affected. The water remediation team concluded their work, which leaves repainting, floor refinishing, and replacement of carpet and soundproofing materials. We are currently waiting for insurance adjustors and approval of quotes, a process we cannot control. In the meantime, we apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your patience as we work to remediate and repair our beloved flagship museum.

In the meantime, we are pleased to present Relic Tales of the Johnstown Floods at the Heritage Discovery Center, which is unaffected and operating normal business hours. This new temporary exhibition includes more than 200 artifacts and photographs, many of which have never been on display before, from the Johnstown flood of 1889 (as well as 1936 and 1977).  Welcome!

    Tour Rates

    Group rates for just one site are available, but combination rates for the Johnstown Flood Museum, Johnstown Children’s Museum/Heritage Discovery Center and all its features are an even better value – so plan to visit all both sites! Tour groups are welcome to tour the Wagner-Ritter House & Garden, too. The museums, which are located a half-mile apart, make for a wonderful day of sightseeing.
