The daily routine of pre-Civil War Connecticut comes vividly to life when you explore this 1845 shop interior. Originally located on Main Street in New Canaan, the Society's Cody Drug Store, adjacent to the Town House, is complete with original fixtures, store merchandise, and bottles still filled with medicines and remedies. Labels on the many original apothecary jars are in need of conservation, a critical step to preserve the character of the museum. It is hoped that this project can be undertaken soon.
Museums located in the Town House (Clock Room and Cody Drug Store) are open from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Tuesdays through Fridays. Saturday hours are 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 and 2:00 to 4:30 p.m.
For tours of other museum buildings on the grounds, please call the Society at 203-966-1776 to make an appointment for day and time.
