Remick Country Doctor Museum & Farm

General Information:

"Explore over 200 years of self-sustained living, as we preserve the agricultural way of life in New Hampshire."

The Remick Country Doctor Museum & Farm is located in Tamworth Village, New Hampshire, a charming New England village located in north- central New Hampshire. Our museum and farm is located between the White Mountains and the Lakes Region, easily accessible from Routes 16 and 25.

Come experience the agricultural way of life in New Hampshire, from 1790 to the present. You can see a working farm with sheep, goats, cows, steers, oxen, chickens, and turkeys. In spring and summer, see lambs and pigs. Walk into the 1830's garden and view the historic crops and vegetables. Take a leisurely 6/10 mile hike on the Binsack Trail, a low impact experience offering spectacular views of Remick Farm, Mount Chocorua, and the Ossipee Mountain Range.

Remick Farm has a cattle barn, milk house, maple sugar house, stable, and a historic English Barn. Many of these buildings are open in spring, summer, and during special events. Take a tour of these facilities with a Remick Museum Tour Guide, who provides you with exclusive access and information on historic farm tools and equipment.
 

Come inside the Museum Farm House, where you can tour the living quarters of Dr. Edwin Crafts Remick and his wife, Marion Ella Miles Remick. See the modest furnishings of their country life; view the medical equipment of the doctor. In the Visitor's Center, view exhibits on The Farmer's Year, and other changing, seasonal exhibits.

Visit the Captain Enoch Remick House, the boyhood home of Dr. Remick. The last two generations of the Remick family were country doctors. Dr. Edwin Remick (father) and Dr. Edwin Crafts Remick (son), pictured above, served the rural community where they were born and raised. Together they provided 99 years of continuous medical care to Tamworth and surrounding towns.

The Captain Enoch Remick House contains the antique furnishings of the country doctors, which include an antique toy collection and 19th century murals attributed to the American painter, John Avery. The original medical office and medicine room, used by both doctors, are preserved on the first floor.
   

The Remick family settled in Tamworth over 200 years ago, and six generations of the same family worked the farm. Each generation prospered, and was active in the town's history. Before his death in 1993, Dr. Edwin Crafts Remick created a foundation to preserve his home, farm and family history in a way that the public could enjoy. The Remick family's 200 year history in Tamworth gives us all a glimpse into how people worked and played in this historic landscape.

The Remick Museum offers a diverse array of programs, workshops and special events for adults, children, and families year round. Visit our website at www.remickmuseum.org. 

"Exhibits change with the seasons, so there is always something new for the inquisitive mind of every age.  Come share in Dr. Remick's vision, and find your own connection with the past. Learn how much we have in common with those who lived before us."

The Remick Country Doctor Museum and Farm's Mission:
