Mill Hill Historic Park, Historical park and museum in Norwalk, United States.
Mill Hill Historic Park contains three restored buildings from the colonial and early American periods. The structures date from different eras and stand on grounds that include a burial area used for centuries.
A burial ground established in 1767 forms the core of the site and holds graves of soldiers from the Revolutionary War. The three buildings were added later to preserve and interpret the region's early history.
The site reflects how local communities lived and worked across different time periods. Visitors can see how buildings were designed for daily life and notice the social structures revealed through restored spaces and period furnishings.
The grounds are open to visitors during daylight hours and can be explored on your own at no charge. Guided tours are available by contacting the local historical society if you want more detailed information.
A colonial herb garden on the grounds displays plants that settlers once grew for food and medicine. The garden uses traditional planting methods and shows how people sourced everyday materials from their land.
