Heritage House Museum
Heritage House Museum, Historic house museum in Okawville, Illinois, United States.
The Heritage House Museum consists of three preserved homes: the Frank Schlosser Complex, Dr. Robert C. Poos Home, and Joseph Schlosser Home at North Hanover Street.
Frank Schlosser established a harness shop on the property in 1890, while his wife Sophia and daughters operated a laundry service for mineral spa guests.
The museum displays Victorian furnishings, medical instruments, and historical photographs that document the development of Okawville through different time periods.
The Okawville Chamber of Commerce conducts guided tours through all three properties, allowing visitors to explore the architectural details and period furniture.
The Joseph Schlosser House remains the last Old World-style residence in Okawville, featuring a brick structure built directly adjacent to the street in 1869.
