Montgomery County Hospitals Exhibit

From Almshouses to Hospitals

Our newest exhibition at the Historical Society of Montgomery County will focus on hospitals and healthcare in Montgomery County. Hospitals are a common site throughout Montgomery County, but that was not always the case. From local doctors, to Almshouses, and nonprofit organizations, the way we treat the sick and injured has changed drastically since the founding of the county. In this exhibit, we will explore how hospitals and medical treatments have evolved and impacted the community.

The exhibit will be located at our site at 1654 DeKalb Street in Norristown, PA. The exhibit will open to the public on Monday July 1, 2019, and run until February 1, 2020.

Exhibit Hours: Monday & Thursday - 10:00 a.m.-4:30 p.m.; Tuesday & Wednesday - 1:00 p.m.-7:30 p.m. Call for Saturday Hours; Closed Friday, Sunday, and Holidays.
