Enfield Shaker Museum, Open-air museum in Enfield, US.
The Enfield Shaker Museum contains eight historical buildings and gardens that display the construction methods and lifestyle of the Shaker religious community.
The Shaker community established this settlement in 1793, reaching 300 members by 1840 and remaining active until 1923 when the last residents departed.
The Great Stone Dwelling, constructed between 1837 and 1841, represents the largest Shaker building north of Boston and demonstrates their architectural expertise.
The museum operates daily with guided tours of the premises, offering visitors accommodation options in original Shaker bedrooms within the Great Stone Dwelling.
In 1849, the Shakers constructed the Shaker Bridge across Lake Mascoma to connect their community with a railroad line for improved transportation.
