The Plumbing Museum

Since its opening in 1979, The Plumbing Museum has drawn curious people from all walks of life, as well as plumbers and other tradespeople, and is one of the Most Unusual Museums in Boston. The museum pays homage to the plumbers, engineers, and inventors whose toil and inventiveness have made such a significant contribution to the advancement of our society and presents a distinctive, trade-specific perspective on American history. Charles Manoog started gathering vintage toilets, claw-foot bathtubs, elaborate sinks, and other plumbing fixtures in the 1950s. For these things, his son Russell founded the American Sanitary Plumbing Museum in Worcester, Massachusetts, in 1979. Russell and his wife Bettejane looked for a family business to continue the leadership of the museum after they retired.

The Plumbing Museum has a lot of antique artefacts, many of which are from the eighteenth century. Visitors can travel through history and observe how piping technology has advanced over the years. Holding a private event, wedding, business meeting, or corporate event at The Plumbing Museum will make an impression on your visitors! The Plumbing Museum, which is only a few steps from the Charles River and a quick 10 to 15-minute drive from downtown Boston, offers a distinctive and historic environment that is guaranteed to enhance your upcoming occasion.
