Monteith House Museum, House museum in Albany, United States.

The Monteith House Museum stands as a two-story Federal architecture building with symmetrical design and period-accurate interior furnishings from the 1800s.

Brothers Walter and Thomas Monteith constructed this residence in 1849 after purchasing 320 acres of land near the Willamette River for 400 dollars.

The residence functioned as the center of early Albany society, hosting the first Presbyterian congregation meetings and the formation of Oregon's Republican Party.

Tours of the Monteith House Museum at 518 Second Avenue SW require advance reservations through the Monteith Historical Society at (541) 220-0421.

The structure represents the first frame house built in Albany and maintains its position as Oregon's most accurately restored residence from the Pioneer period.
