Історичний будинок-музей Hearthstone
Епплтон, штат Вісконсін, був одним із перших трьох міст у світі, освітлених центральною електростанцією Едісона, а інші два — Нью-Йорк і Лондон. Це сталося завдяки Генрі Дж. Роджерсу, який вирішив інвестувати в електростанцію Едісона, щоб освітлювати дві паперові фабрики та свій будинок. Відтоді як у 1987 році він став музеєм, Hearthstone зосереджується на збереженні будинку та його артефактів, щоб відтворити історичний досвід на основі його спадщини Томаса А. Едісона для культурного задоволення та освітньої користі громадськості через численні виставки та програми. Пропонуються екскурсії Hearthstone, а також можливість ознайомитися з різними освітніми експонатами. Усі екскурсії проводять підготовлені доценти, які обговорюють історію будинку, його унікальне місце в історії, його архітектуру та сім’ї, які жили в ньому понад 100 років. Виставки, які ви побачите, присвячені Едісону, його винахідницькій спадщині, електриці та історії гідроелектрики в Hearthstone.

Hearthstone Historic House Museum
Appleton, Wisconsin was one of the first three cities in the world to be lit by an Edison central power station, the other two being New York and London. This was all due to Henry J. Rogers, who decided to invest in Edison’s power station in order to light two paper mills and his home. Since it became a museum in 1987, Hearthstone’s focus is to preserve the house and its artifacts to re-create a historical experience based on its Thomas A. Edison heritage for the cultural enjoyment and educational benefit of the public through its many exhibits and programs. Guided tours through Hearthstone are offered as well as a chance to explore the various educational exhibits. All tours are guided by trained docents who discuss the history of the house, its unique place in history, its architecture, and the families who have lived there for over 100 years. The exhibits you'll see are dedicated to Edison, his inventive legacy, electricity, and the history of hydroelectricity at the Hearthstone.

The mansion built in the late 1800's was specially decorated for Christmas. The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable about the history of the home and people who lived there. Excellent 2 hours spent!!!

Douglas- We are glad you enjoyed this tour. Over 35 people worked throughout the year to plan and execute our Christmas Season decorations. It is different every year, so if you get a chance, come back and visit us again!
