The Story Behind the 235-Year-Old Farmhouse Amidst Manhattan’s Skyscrapers

To enhance visitors’ understanding of its historic residents, the Dyckman Farmhouse Museum converted a room into the ‘Relic Room.’ It showcases a vast collection of the Dyckmans’ belongings, revealing their lives through discovered possessions.

The ‘Relic Room’ houses an array of items, from farm tools to personal letters and cooking gear, serving as a window into the daily lives of the Dyckmans. It raises curiosity about the rest of the house, particularly the upstairs.
