The building was, according to local lore, originally built to house a church, but this is not confirmed in any documentation. It was built about 1860, and was one of the town's sixteen district schoolhouses. Population decline in the 19th century quickly reduced the number of district schools to nine, and the school system was consolidated in 1933, closing the remaining district schools. This building sat vacant until 1947, when it was rehabilitated and used for a time as a community center. It was acquired in 1966 by the Sebec Historical Society, which uses it as a museum.
