The second floor of the court house was originally a jail. One of the cells has been preserved. The rest of the space has been given over to the Bedford Museum, which chronicles life in the town from its earliest inhabitants. There are Indian artifacts, china and silver from local homes, dolls, clothing, and farm implements. One room recreates a colonial kitchen.
Groups are free.
Located on Route 22 in the heart of Bedford Village, the court house is maintained by the Bedford Historical Society.
