Very interesting Historical Society. Lots of information on the movie Groundhogs Day and local history as well.
Punxsutawney Area Historical & Genealogical Society的点评
点评:The Punxsutawney Historical & Genealogical Society is a very nice little museum that is very underrated. I visited it the last time I was in Punxsutawney and it has a lot of information on local history, the founding of the town, lots of fascinating artifacts and a great display on the movie "Groundhogs Day", that was not shot here.
Still the museum is spread through the Lattimer House and the Bennis House across the street. The Bennis House has many artifacts from the Victorian age along with a interesting display of dollhouses, furniture and pictures of the families that lived here. In the Lattimer House was their Christmas Tree display still up for Groundhogs Day and a display of Native American arts and the Coal Mining industry that was a big part of the community. There's also art from local artists and information on the town's history. It should not be missed when visiting the town.
翻译:庞克苏托尼历史与家谱协会是一个非常漂亮的小博物馆,但被低估了。上次我在庞克瑟托尼时参观过这里,里面有很多关于当地历史、城镇建立的信息,还有很多迷人的文物,还有电影《土拨鼠之日》的精彩展示,这部电影不是在这里拍摄的。
博物馆仍然遍布街对面的拉蒂默故居和本尼斯故居。班尼斯之家 (Bennis House) 拥有许多维多利亚时代的文物,还有有趣的玩具屋、家具和住在这里的家庭的照片。拉蒂默之家(Lattimer House)的圣诞树展览仍在土拨鼠日进行,并展示了美国原住民艺术和煤炭开采业(该行业是社区的重要组成部分)。还有当地艺术家的艺术作品和有关该镇历史的信息。游览小镇时不容错过。
