Carroll County Almshouse and Farm, Historical farm museum in Westminster, Maryland.

The three-story brick main building features 30 rooms, nine bays wide on both front and rear facades, with a bell cupola on top.

The Carroll County Almshouse, founded in 1852, provided shelter and care for people in need who worked on its 340-acre property.

The Living History Center demonstrates traditional crafts including spinning, weaving, tinsmithing, chair caning, and broom making through skilled artisans.

Seven furnished rooms in the farmhouse display life of a middle-class farm family from the 1880s, while barns contain agricultural machinery collections.

The Hoff Memorial Log Barn, dating from the 1700s, stands as a remarkable structure built without using any nails.
