Port Deposit Heritage Museum - Paw-Paw Building

This is the official page for the museum. We are locals who run the Paw-Paw Museum. Please note: Our museum is unfortunately not wheelchair accessible.

The group who runs the museum is the Port Deposit Heritage Corporation (PDHC for short). We are dedicated to preserving as many tangible, historical items as possible from this charming little town. Please know that although the page for the Paw Paw museum posts some wonderful items as well as this one, it is run privately by a local citizen and in no way affiliated with us and we cannot vouch for the integrity of items published on the places page for paw paw museum.
