About Allegany Museum:
Allegany Museum developed from the Western Maryland Station Center, Inc., a community group formed in 1983 to preserve, restore and renovate the Western Maryland Railroad Station. In 1999, the Museum acquired the old Post Office and Federal Court House Building at 3 Pershing Street, Cumberland. The second floor was restored and features eight exhibition areas and the grand wood-paneled courtroom which is used as an event center. In 2021, the museum restored and renovated the beautiful first-floor hall of the Post Office to house a permanent exhibition that traces the history of the National Road.
