Toledo's Wolcott House Museum affords you the opportunity to step back into the 1800s to get a taste of what life was like back then.

This museum also features several adjacent structures that include a log home that once stood on the banks of the Miami and Erie Canals, an 1840s-style farmhouse, a railroad depot, a church and an 1840s Greek-style home.
